I booked my ticket to Mathaf online in their website. Qatar residents can enter the museum for free. When I arrived, they just scanned my QR code and I was able to enter the museum. The staff are friendly and approachable they even offer free lockers for you to leave your belongings. The museum showcases amazing paintings, sculptures and art installations. There is a small library inside and an interactive art room for kids. The location is accessible via public transportation. You can get there using the education city tram (blue line). Just check the train schedule before going if you decide to use the tram. I just wish there was a coffee shop or restaurant nearby.

I love this place 😍 All the exhibitions are amazing and high quality. Anyone who loves modern art should pay a visit. For residents the entrance is free, for visitors it’s only 50 QAR. I would suggest you to avoid the museum coffee, because as much as I would like to like it, it’s only mediocre. The place looks great but I got the worst matcha latte in my life and it was expensive too. (At the time of our visit there were no cakes or sandwiches available).
