Al Gharrafa (Arabic: الغرافة, romanizedAl Gharrāfah) is a Qatari district of Al Rayyan City, which is located in the municipality of Al Rayyan.[3] In close proximity to Education City and constituting a part of the Doha Metropolitan Area, the Doha Expressway and Al Shamal Highway run along the district. Many malls operate out of the area.[4] To the east, it neighbors the largely residential areas of Duhail and Madinat Khalifa North, therefore Al Gharrafa is largely a retail hub for nearby residential areas. Doha's downtown is 10 kilometres (6.2 mi) to the southeast.[5]
