1 natt eller 3 dagars layover i Doha, vad väljer man?

[Cotten]

Har valet att spendera en natt eller 2-3 dagar i Doha för samma pris på vägen hem från en asienresa.

Är staden värt ett besök om det är halvt "gratis"? Någon som vart där?

Bonuspoäng: Kan man som kinesisk medborgare ansöka och få visum på plats i Doha som oss svenskar eller måste man ansöka i förväg?

Tack och Mvh,
Cotten

Det ser ut som om kinesiska medborgare måste ansöka Qatars visum i förväg.
