The squad, led by head coach Felix Sanchez, arrived on Saturday ahead of their opening Group E match against Lebanon on Wednesday.
Qatar, despite losing 2-1 to Islamic Republic of Iran in their final friendly, have enjoyed fine form in the build-up to the Continental showpiece and will be a team to watch.
They will be seeking to better their previous best of having finished as quarter-finalists twice - in 1988 and 2011 - in their 10th appearance in the AFC Asian Cup.
