A seven-kilometre curved waterfront promenade along the western shore of Doha Bay, the Corniche provides the classic unobstructed view of the West Bay skyline — a dense cluster of glass towers that is among the most recognisable urban panoramas in the Gulf. The promenade is lined with palms and public parks and is used for walking and cycling throughout the cooler months. The best skyline photography is achieved from the northern end of the Corniche in the late afternoon, when the tower facades catch direct western light.
