When I first climbed this intricate staircase in the terrible heat, I did not even think that this staircase itself was a work of art. It turned out to be yes. And it even has its own meaning. Therefore, it is intricate - with meaning and thoughts. Actually, it's just a climb to the restaurant at the top of a man-made truncated cone or pyramid. There are some similarities with the step pyramids of Mexico and Southeast Asia. Ceremonial pyramids. But guides and tourist guides don't talk about this. And they say that the Lightning Staircase is a symbol of modern art combined with cultural heritage. A symbol, not a symbol, but from the top, from the restaurant, there is an almost complete picture of Katara Cultural Village and beautiful views of the surrounding bays, islands and the sea. It turns out that I shouldn't have climbed, sweating on foot! There is also an air-conditioned elevator that will quickly take you to the restaurant.
