The State of Qatar is located in the Middle East on a peninsula that protrudes into the Persian Gulf and shares a border with Saudi Arabia. This small country covers 4,416 square miles and has a population of about 2.3 million people. With a political system that is an absolute monarchy, the Al Thani family has ruled Qatar since 1825. This country’s constitution states that Qatar’s religion is Islam and Shari’a law is a main source of its legislation.
There was no strong central government in Qatar until the late 18th century when Saudi Muslims gained control. Ottoman Turks occupied this region until 1916 when Qatar became a British protectorate. Qatar became independent in 1971
Qatar was once one of the poorest states in the Gulf. Oil was discovered in the 1940s and brought great wealth to the country. Oil and natural gas revenues have funded improvements in transportation, housing and public health.
Qatar is home to Al Jazeera, the popular Arabic satellite television network.
Qatar offers many points of interest for the traveller, such as the market area, Souq Waqif; the Corniche, a waterfront promenade in Doha; the State Grand Mosque, and the Khor Al Udeid beach area with its remarkable sand dunes that rise as high as 40 meters. The capital city, Doha, is known for skyscrapers and modern architecture, and the Museum of Islamic Art.

Qatar中的安全性
人身安全
卡達是世界上最安全的國家之一。犯罪指數為 15.4,安全指數為 84.34,根據 2024 年和 2025 年的多次評估,卡達位居全球最安全的三大目的地之列。由於嚴格的法律和對犯罪活動的零容忍政策,暴力犯罪很少發生。扒手和搶包等輕微犯罪極為罕見,儘管它們可能發生在瓦其夫市場和購物中心等繁忙的旅遊區。卡達在公共場所維護廣泛的監控系統和臉部辨識技術。 2021 年至 2024 年間,該國的犯罪總數下降了 17%。對基於膚色、民族、性別或宗教的人身攻擊的擔憂得分非常低,為 100 分中的 17.09 分。信用卡詐欺確實會發生,因此請密切監控您的信用卡和銀行對帳單。女性旅行者表示,即使獨自旅行也感到安全。 2022 年世界盃期間,該賽事未發生重大犯罪事件。
極端暴力
根據美國國務院報告,2023 年卡達未發生恐怖事件。該國設有國家反恐委員會,由來自 10 多個政府機構的代表組成。卡達是聯合國反恐辦公室行為洞察國際中心的所在地,每年向聯合國反恐信託基金捐款 1,500 萬美元,是該辦公室最大的捐助國。卡達國家安全局對監控國內恐怖主義相關活動保持積極態勢。雖然不能排除恐怖攻擊的可能性,但安全環境保持穩定。海灣地區存在潛在的恐怖主義威脅,偶爾會有威脅攻擊西方利益的言論。地區政治發展可能會影響當地輿論,週五可能會加劇緊張局勢。示威活動需要政府事先批准,實際上很少見。
政治動盪
卡達的政治穩定,權力集中在埃米爾和統治家族手中。法律禁止政黨,也沒有有組織的反對派運動。 2024年,卡達舉行了憲法公投,結束了僅進行一次選舉週期的2021年協商會議選舉。現在,埃米爾任命該諮詢立法機構的所有成員。集會自由非常有限,公眾集會的組織者必須獲得內政部的許可。抗議活動很少發生,可能會導致逮捕。 2021年和2022年,反對選舉法的抗議者被捕,其中數人被判處終身監禁。法律禁止批評埃米爾,據報道,安全部隊監視通訊和社交媒體。該國沒有發生重大的內亂或武裝衝突。地區政治發展和事件可能會影響當地輿論,但卡達透過嚴格執行有關公眾言論和集會的法律來維持內部穩定。
應避免的區域
卡達全國犯罪率極低,因此不存在傳統意義上的危險社區。整個國家對遊客和居民來說都被認為是安全的。一些當地人建議在夜間避開多哈老工業區、姆謝里布和多哈賈迪德,但即使是這些地區,白天的風險也非常小。西灣、珍珠島、阿爾薩德和阿爾瓦布是最安全、最受遊客和外籍人士歡迎的地區。由於流浪動物、沙塵暴和潛在的維護不善,鄉村道路需要格外小心。城市中心以外的沙漠地區存在與極端高溫和迷路相關的風險,而非犯罪。您可以在任何時間在多哈自由行走,無需擔心人身安全。該國廣泛的監控系統和可見的安全存在有助於保障所有地區的安全。
