Fereej Al Asiri (Arabic: فريج العسيري; also referred to simply as Al Asiri) is a district of the municipality of Al Rayyan in Qatar.[1] It is situated on the border with Ad-Dawhah Municipality and is thus considered a part of Metropolitan Doha. The district of Al Mamoura borders it to the south, New Salata borders it to the east and Fereej Al Nasr borders it to the north.[2]

A popular landmark is the Al Asiri Interchange, which was formerly known as the Midmac Roundabout because it hosted the headquarters of Qatari contracting company Midmac from 1979 to May 2008.[3][4] The Al Faleh Training Centre, affiliated to Doha Academy, is also found in the district.[2]
