Old Souk where you can experience traditional Arab culture🐪🏜️

📍Location: Dubai (Bur Dubai area), UAE🇦🇪

💰Price per person: Free entry (shopping can be a bargain if you negotiate!💰)

🛍️Atmosphere/Facilities: An exotic brick arcade lined with shops selling fabrics, spices, miscellaneous goods, etc.✨
An old-fashioned market style that gives a glimpse into the lives of local people🏺🌾

💞Reasons why we recommend it: A rare area where you can feel the old-fashioned Arabian atmosphere, which is a little different from Dubai's futuristic image🌙🧕
There are plenty of bargains, such as colorful scarves, pashminas, lamps, and perfume bottles💡
Price negotiations are also a great part of traveling, and you can enjoy interacting with local people◎

Recommended season: The cooler months of November to March are recommended. It's comfortable to stroll around during the day ☀️

Overall impression: In contrast to the glittering Dubai, the rustic and warm atmosphere is comforting 🌾
Access by the water taxi "Abra" is also full of atmosphere, and it instantly improves the travel mood 🚤
A perfect spot for those looking for souvenirs or wanting to experience a little culture ✨
However, I almost got ripped off when I tried to buy playing cards, so if you want to enjoy shopping safely, Dubai Mall or souvenir shops in the city might be better... 🥲
