"At Souk Madinat, a recreation of an ancient Arabian marketplace with shopping stalls, bars, and restaurants, you're in for breathtaking views of the Burj Al Arab, best enjoyed from one of the coffee shops or bars along the water. The recreated souk area really enchants, with ornately patterned timber ceilings and brass burners holding incense sticks. Bejeweled is the name of the game here, so scour the indoor stalls for sequined fabrics, beaded slippers, and sparkly kaftans. Home accessories are also plentiful here, as are typical Middle Eastern souvenirs like colorful pashminas." - Laura Ratliff, Maresa Manara
