When Mom and I were in Dubai we went to "Old Dubai". It was so interesting because in Abu Dhabi everything is new, there essentially is no "old" area, it's a;; been torn down and rebuilt. It was great to walk streets and see an area that actually felt "old".
It's not a large area, but it was still cool!
The textile souks.
More of the Textile Souks.
Fancy "sign" to get to the Spice Souk.
This was my favorite area of Old Dubai!
Spices were heaped in baskets and lined the very narrow street.
Some were in stores.
The streets were narrow.
Old Dubai is on two sides of the Dubai creek. And this area is bustling with people working. Unloading boxes from dhows that came down the river and then been distributed to markets.
We crossed the Creek in an Abra, that a water taxi for 1 dirham, 32 cents each!
