Abu Dhalouf is located on the west of Madinat Ash Shamal and seems to be almost part of it. It’s a quiet town but has one of Qatar’s nicest parks. Abu Dhalouf Park is one of Qatar’s nicest parks. It has something for everyone to do from little ones to adults. The park is lush green and is filled with trees, hedges and colourful flowers. There are two play areas where the children can have fun and play games while the adults set up a picnic. It’s a lovely spot that opens onto a beach with shallow waters so the little children can also enjoy the water. The views here are fantastic and if you’re in Madinat Ash Shamal, this park is not to be missed.

The double-towered building made of red bricks housing the city council, the city's administration, and various other municipal organisations is a major symbol of the city. The interiors are decorated with scenes of Norwegian culture, history, and working life from the first half of the 20th century. The ceremony for the Nobel Peace Prize awarding is held here every year.

Located inside Ibirapuera Park, OCA is a space-age exhibition hall, designed by Oscar Niemeyer in the shape of an indigenous hut, which hosts interesting events and cultural exhibitions.

In Bispham, take a walk along the North Blackpool Pond Trail rich in bird life. One is guaranteed to see at least some of the bird residents of the area - these include ducks, geese, herons, and even elegant white swans. The pond trail is maintained by the effort of a dedicated volunteer group.
