The Doha Corniche is a waterfront promenade extending for several kilometers along Doha Bay in the capital city of Doha, the state of Qatar. 〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Doha Corniche )〕 Running parallel to the Corniche is Corniche Street, a main thoroughfare which connects Doha's emerging West Bay business district with the south of the city and Doha International Airport. It was formed following extensive dredging work carried out during the late 1970s and early 1980s which reshaped Doha's coastline.〔 The Corniche used to be an empty stretch of walkway in which the only visible edifice was a Sheraton Hotel, but development has increased in the 21st century with dozens of skyscrapers being built towards the north of the Corniche. The areas development is part of the economic boom the country has been experiencing and part of an effort promote tourism, which was facilitated by the 2006 Asian Games. Many of Doha's landmarks are found along the Corniche which begins near the Museum of Islamic Art, and ends at the Sheraton Park near the distinctive pyramid-shaped Sheraton Hotel.〔 Al Rumaila Park is also nearby. ==Significant landmarks== *Emiri Diwan *Museum of Islamic Art *Doha Port *Qatar National Museum *Qatar National Theatre *Dubai Towers - Doha *Sheraton Hotel *Commercialbank Plaza *Doha Tower *Richard Serra '7' 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Doha Corniche」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
