Madinat Khalifa North (Arabic: مدينه خليفه الشماليه, romanizedMadīnat Khalīfah ash Shamālīyah) is a north-western district of Doha, Qatar. It is one of the two sections of Madinat Khalifa, the other being Madinat Khalifa South.[1] The district was developed in the 1970s by the Emir of Qatar at the time, Sheikh Khalifa bin Hamad Al Thani, primarily to serve as a residential district for Qatari families.[2]

The district is situated between the city of Al Rayyan and downtown Doha.
