Doha, November 04, 2026 : Media City Qatar has partnered with internationally renowned publishing house Assouline to produce a collection of luxury books highlighting Doha's history, cultural identity, landmarks and urban development.
Set for release over the coming months, the publications will explore significant places, institutions and milestones that have helped shape the city.
