Al Owaina

Al Owaina (Arabic: لعوينة; also spelled Leawaina and Al Uwaynah) is a small village in western Qatar located in the municipality of Al-Shahaniya. The closest sizable settlement is the industrial city of Dukhan. Situated to the immediate south of the Dukhan Highway, the capital Doha is located some 50 miles (80 km) away. Similar to many other rural settlements in Qatar, its population rapidly fell in the late 20th century amidst government efforts to resettle rural residents to Doha.
