About the Museum: Designed by I.M. Pei and opened in 2008, the Museum of Islamic Art houses one of the world's premier collections of Islamic art spanning 1,400 years. Its bold geometric silhouette — rising from a man-made peninsula in Doha Bay — is one of the most photographed buildings in the Arabian Gulf. Pei considered it his greatest work.
