What 3Charlie D (2 6 years ago on Google doesn't like about Barzan Towers:
It's one of the oldest buildings around, two fortified towere, has a Wikipedia article and is open to the public to explore. So in that way it's almost completely unique in Doha. However it's been recently rebuilt to the extent that you can't tell that its old and it's also absolutely covered in bird poop. Also there's zero information on site about its history or that of the area. View all feedback.

Interesting spot with decent historical information. It was not possible to climb to the top of the towers when I was here.

Fascinating architectural style though constructed in recent times. It would have been even better if the towers had been open to climb to the top.

Several old houses repurposed into museums that tell the story of various aspects of Doha before oil and wealth, including of slavery. Very well done.

Good for one time visit. Historical place with good architecture. No parking place available there. Good for explorers.
