The quadrennial World Cup has opened! This year's World Cup came to Qatar, a hot climate. It was the first World Cup held in the territory of the Middle Eastern country in history, and also the first World Cup held in winter in history. The 5-hour time difference could not resist the enthusiasm of fans.

"With a piece of cloth on your head, I am the richest in the world" Qatar, in addition to the national GDP that shocked everyone, "no poor people", its geographical location and climate are also "fascinating".

Qatar is located in the middle of the west coast of the Persian Gulf, surrounded by the sea on three sides in the east, north and west, and bordering Saudi Arabia on the south land. The land area of Qatar is about 11,500 square kilometers, which is equivalent to 0.7 of the size of Beijing. The population of Qatari citizens is only 330,000, which is not even enough to sit in the eight stadiums of this World Cup.

The country is flat, the highest altitude 103 meters, desert and rocky Gobi hidden under the "liquid gold" - oil. The average temperature in Qatar, a tropical desert climate, ranges from 25 ° C to 46 ° C throughout the year, with the highest recorded temperature reaching 50.4 ° C in July 2010!

It takes a lot of ambition and skill to build a course in a place where there is nothing but desert. Qatar spent $220 billion to build World Cup-standard stadiums, culminating in seven brand new stadiums, a new city, Lusaire, more than 20 hotels and giant shopping malls, two large marinas, and a 241-acre entertainment complex with a zoo and leisure park. In addition, the new Hamad International Airport on the east coast of Doha, the capital, has two of Asia's longest runways, three new driverless metro lines, and can be found anywhere you want.
