Souq Madinat Jumeirah
SHOPPING CENTRE
( 366 8888;
www.jumeirah.com
;
Madinat Jumeirah, Al Sufouh Rd; Mall of the Emirates)
More a themed
shopping mall than a traditional Arabian market, this souq is a bit of a tourist trap, with
prices that are considerably higher than they are in real souqs. Still, it's an attractive spot
for a wander.
Karama Shopping Strip
SHOPPING CENTRE
(18B St, off Sheikh Rashid Rd, Bur Dubai; Al Karama)
The place to come for knock-off designer
sunglasses, clothing and handbags. Great prices on pashminas, but check the quality. Also
souvenirs and imported handicrafts. Haggling should get you at least 30% off the asking
price.
