Doha Asian Games - Opening ceremony
December 02, 2006
The "Seeker" rides upon a boat in the shape of the Arabic letter "Qaf".
Capacity spectators of 40,000 were entertained by a performance using cutting-edge technology, telling a story about how an Ancient Qatari, named the Seeker, searched for treasures and found other parts of Asia with the help of an astrolabe. He returned with richness and handed down not only the astrolabe, but also his respect for knowledge and their own culture.
