The family area, which will be located in the middle of the park and cover an estimated 500,000 square meters, will serve as the hub for family-friendly events, meetings, and outdoor activities. The cultural area, which has a space of around 500,000 square meters and is situated in the southern zone, will host exhibitions and cultural and traditional activities.
Doha’s Expo 2023 is a significant turning point in the forward progress described in “Qatar National Vision 2030.” the four development pillars of economic, social, human, and environmental sustainability are highlighted.
The six-month spectacle known as Expo 2023 Doha is expected to draw an amazing three million visitors from all over the world and will serve as a showcase for Qatar’s dedication to sustainability and innovation.
