Qatar is a modern country situated on the coast of the Persian Gulf. It offers a relaxed atmosphere with countless leisure time activities. The country is surrounded by sea with kite-surfers soaring above, and locals riding on water scooters below. In the heart of Qatar, there are golden sand dunes, which represent a popular tour destination to the inland. Doha, the capital city of Qatar, attracts visitors with its wide bays, sandy beaches, luxury hotels and large shopping centres. More than ¾ of the citizens are foreigners. Healthcare is managed by the Supreme Council of Health, which is responsible for maintaining the quality of the public healthcare system at an international level.
