19th Century Watchtower - Barzan Towers
It wasn't a historical place that everyone had on their minds. A lot of houses and infrastructures already surrounded the towers yet the place is still quiet as we can hear the chirps of the birds and the sound of the wind. Enter on the red gate and a caretaker will welcome you with a guest list that you have to fill your details in. There is no entrance fee, but I would suggest bringing something for the caretaker. We parked our car outside but we figured out that we can actually park inside when another tourist came to enter when we're about to leave. Yes, only one group of tourists arrived after 2hrs of staying and exploring the towers.
While entering the towers, it will give you the feeling of travelling back to ages. You will ask yourself a lot of questions and noone can actually answer it, you will find no descriptions or details on the place, and no guide to explain the history behind. Well, just do your own research prior to visiting.
If you are a person who loves history, you will appreciate every details and traces of the stories you can actually imagine while having your way to the top of the towers. Since Qatar's weather is not so friendly, try to wake up early or go there late in the afternoon so you can still enjoy taking photos outdoor. The towers were developed already to the point that you will see air-conditioned unit inside for summer days.
Make sure to wear something comfortable if you want to explore the two towers and its surroundings. The stairs inside the towers are quite narrow and small. Be ready to enter small door openings to reach the top of the towers, as small as a normal window.

Barzan Towers (Arabic: برج برزان High Place), also known as the Umm Salal Mohammed Fort Towers, are watchtowers that were built in the late 19th century and renovated in 1910 by Sheikh Mohammed bin Jassim Al Thani.[1][2] They are located at the southern side of the defensive system established at the end of the 19th century and start of the 20th century to protect the 'rawdat', a valley where precious rainwater is collected when it flows down from higher ground. In Arabic barzan means high place[1][2]
The buildings were restored in 2003. The towers measure 16 metres (52.49 ft) high.[2] The fort links to two other fortified buildings towards the west and another tower towards the north. Barzan Towers may have been built near the sea to keep an observant eye on pearl divers, as a look-out for approaching ships, and as an observatory for keeping track of the moon.[2][3] The Barzan Towers have been rebuilt with features such as air-conditioners.[1]
Originally built with coral rock and limestone cementing the structures featured traditional Qatari design and building methods including marazim wooden to drain rainwater during storms away from the building walls, a majilis room between the towers to receive guests, and four-layer roofs with danchal wood pole construction, 'basgijl,' woven bamboo strips, mangrove mesh and a layer of compressed mud.

The Barzan Towers were built in the late 19th century and were renovated by Sheikh Mohammed bin Jassim Al Thani in the early 20th century to serve as watchtowers against the incoming Ottoman soldiers. Although his father had defeated the Ottomans several years before in the Battle of Al Wajbah, Mohammed remained weary of renewed military tensions. They were also used by the native Qataris to scrutinize the new moon during the holy month of Ramadan, since keeping track of the moon was essential. The towers were restored in 2003 by the Qatari authorities.
