We had a tour of the beautiful Museum of Islamic Art, which was amazing. It was great to be shown the richness of the art in the museum. I hope to return on my next visit to Qatar and spend more time viewing its incredible collection.’

The celebrity tour comes after American football Super Bowl champion Tom Brady’s recent visit to Qatar, where he and wife Giselle Bündchen, explored the landmark museum.

Designed by world-renowned architect I M Pei, the MIA has become an iconic monument representing Qatar Museums’ commitment to transforming the country into the cultural capital of the Middle East. To mark its 10th Anniversary this upcoming November, the museum will host Syria Matters, a major exhibition documenting the extraordinary cultural heritage of Syria, illuminating the country’s key role in the artistic and intellectual history of the world.
