Apartments are self-contained residential units occupying part of a larger building. They are usually set out on a single storey of a building and it is for this reason that in some regions (UK, India etc.) they are referred to as "flats". The term apartment is one that is used extensively in Europe, North America and places that use American English. The term "flat" is used in the UK, India and places that use British English. Apartments or flats have their own front door, kitchen, toilet and bathroom. In some countries a 1-bedroom apartment may be advertised as a 1bhk or 1bhk flat. The term "bhk" or "BHK" refers to bedroom, hall and kitchen. This means that the unit would have 1 bedroom, a hall (lounge/sitting room) and kitchen.
Apartments can be found in residential blocks or towers and sometimes as a part of a villa where the floors have been separated each with its own entrance etc.
Al Aziziya is a district in the municipality of Al Rayyan in Qatar located on the outskirts of Doha. The area boasts plenty of green space with the presence of part of the huge 88 hectare Aspire Park (part of the Aspire zone) in the district. The rest of the park lies to the north of the district on the other side of Al Waab Street in the neighbouring district Baaya. With well-designed grounds, beautiful fountains, playgrounds for children to exhaust themselves in and many cafes to enjoy tasty beverages and snacks, this is surely a place to spend time in evenings and the weekends. There are many rare and common trees that have been carefully planted which are meticulously tended to so that visitors to the park can enjoy and relax amongst whilst appreciating the beautifully landscaped green surroundings.
Nearby is the iconic Aspire Tower also known as "The Torch" Doha which is currently the tallest landmark in Qatar and stands at 300 meters tall (980ft). The tower served as the focal point for the 15th Asian Games hosted by Qatar in December 2006. There are plenty of furnished apartments and villas to rent in Al Aziziya ready for families and couples to move into straightway with easy access to a number of international schools nearby, making it a great location to rent a home in.
