10 Best Shops in Dubai
"Dubai’s textile souk is the closest thing you'll find to the country’s traditional shopping culture. In a city where nothing is old, this bustling marketplace, right on the creek in Bur Dubai, can be a refreshing change of pace. Here, makeshift stalls are piled high with pashminas, saris, abayas, and kaftans in every color of the rainbow. That's right: Hundreds of different types of fabrics are on sale here. Local vendors will offer a glass of sugary tea while they show off their wares, all while assuring you that theirs are superior than those next door." - Laura Ratliff, Maresa Manara
