In this picture we can see the luxurious, high buildings, full of concrete and glass, demonstrating the construction blooming in this area. We can see also people and cars as well as we can get some information about the climate looking the humidity in the atmosphere. The truth is that these buildings are proving why this city gives many opportunities for jobs and why has already started to grow up so quickly. There is also the biggest shopping mall of this country in the right side of the photo. This photo portrays the wealth of this country. But this photo contains also many invisible information. First of all, we cannot see the habitans of these buildings. People from almost every corner of the world have come to live in Doha. This fact implies varius kinds of shops which targhet different cultures. But there are not only the shops. In Doha there are different kind of schools so every child can maintain its ethnological roots. Another thing that is not visible in this picture is that Qatar has a real big love for the athletic activities. There are a lot of places where everyone can enjoy his favourite sport. This very big infrastructure for sports its there and thats why Qatar tries to obtain the organization of the biggest athletic competitions. Finally, it is invisible the religious part of this country, in which the riligious law dominates. Although the islamic religion is a characteristic that influents the daily life significantly, we cannot see any mosque in the photo.
