Two Qatari photographers embarked on a two-week expedition across Türkiye to photograph its landscapes, people, food, culture, and tourist attractions, aiming to capture the essence of Türkiye from a Qatari perspective.

In exchange, two Turkish photographers were invited to journey across the Arabian Peninsula to experience Qatar through Turkish eyes.

The photographers were encouraged to interact with local people, learn from them and document their experiences. The exhibition showcased the best photographs taken during both trips at Building 18, Katara.
