Time for a little bit of Doha nostalgia.

"Aladdin's Kingdom" was the first - and some would say BEST - outdoor amusement park in Doha.

It featured over 20 attractions including roller-coasters, bumper cars, ferris wheels, carousels and go-karts - and was supposedly the FIRST outdoor amusement park in the Gulf region!

Did you get a chance to enter Aladdin's Kingdom before it disappeared

They tore it down to build the lifeless hellhole that is Katara

I recall Rizks telling me about this place.. How he used to go there with his friends .. He would pretend to be Alladin .. rub a lamp waiting for the genie to appear ...

Good times..

I recall long time back, when the newspaper Peninsula had their Young Editor's program, I used to win lots of free entry tickets to this Aladdin's Kingdom. It came with free entry tickets and ride points. Few companies held there annual parties there, and we used to go for School Picnics out there. Those were fun times, until they shut it all down, and it became a lost legend.

Run very unprofessionally. But still fun because of the inherit danger.
