You can discover the great heritage of Dubai by visiting the grand gold souk shops in the Arabian markets!

You will be traveling back in time to visit all the traditional bustling souks in these market places.

Shopping for Gold in Souk

Look at this next one starring at you in the face:

There are many shops that you can browse around to look for the perfect gold necklace or earrings you have been dreaming to have.


Lots of people come to this central market to shop for gold here!

Make sure you spend a day exploring all these shops!

There is no need to rush to buy right away. Explore all of them.

Remember, gold is like stocks and their price fluctuates on a daily basis.

So come prepared with enough knowledge of the market price so that you are able to get a good discount from the vendors here.

Remember that gold is sold by weight in karat. You want the karat to be high because the higher the karat , the purer the gold you have.

For example, a 24 karat gold is 100% pure gold.

Pure gold is really soft. It only gets hardened by mixing it with different metals. So when there is lesser metal such as silver, zinc, copper and nickel, mixing into it, you don't get pure gold at all.

How to get to the Old Souk in Dubai

The Old Souk is located in the Bur Dubai.

The boats usually leave here for the other side of the creek.

The fare is so cheap. Only 1 Durham and it operates 24 hours around the clock.

Look for Al Ras Deira.

The souk is adjacent to the Dubai Fish and Vegetable Market.

Look for the Deira Corniche near Baniyas Square at Sikkat al-Khali Street.

The closest metro station walk is only 5 minutes away. Get off at Al Ras Station.

Enjoy your trip,

Rosa
