DOHA, KOMPAS – Two gardeners sweep fallen leaves littered across the green grass of Bayt Stadium Park in Al Khor city, Qatar on Wednesday (16/11/2022) afternoon local time. Gardeners are also seen praying on the thick green grass.

The green atmosphere in the Al Khor area was unimaginable a decade ago. Before the construction of the stadium began in 2016, the area planned for the 40-hectare stadium was nothing but desert.
