Occupying an entire block just next to the large Souk Wafiq, this collection of small shops all setup pretty much the same, is worth a short visit ... there's probably 40 odd shops in the block and some spill over ones in the surrounds...you can walk around the block and see into the shops through the windows...it was June and about half the shops were empty, still plenty to see... all are pretty much the same so we just picked one at random to go into.... most have a large sandpit occupying the centre of the shop with wood stumps evenly space upon which the falcons are perched... there are a wide variety of falcons in terms of size and colours (and presumably hunting ability).... the shopowners are pretty cool about visitors and explain falconry and it's importance to Qatari culture... the owners let us hold a falcon using forearm guards for photos... pretty nice of them... was free as long as you showed genuine interest in learning about the practice... possibly not a great place in you are an avid animal lover BUT the birds do look well cared for.. maybe naive? .. the rest of the shop usually has all manner of falconry accessories and leatherworks, which is interesting as well... only requires less than an hour of your time..
