Deira
The two main areas of Dubai are Deira and Bur Dubai. The Deira part of Dubai offers guests a selection of exceptional attractions such as the Dhow Wharfage
Deira Side of Dubai
Deira is situated on the other side of the Dubai creek which separates it from Bur Dubai.
You can get across the Dubai creek at 3 different points. People can also make use of the Dubai creek water taxis which transport people from the Bur Dubai side to the Deira side of Dubai.
Deira is said to be to some extent less urbanized and commercialized then Bur Dubai across the creek.
Many tourists might take for this idea for granted as being the full truth. Granted many commercial and financial activities are found in the region including the Dubai World Trade Centre however Deira has a lot to offer as well to Dubai visitors.
Dubai Souk
Traders and businesses can be found all over Deira. The difference with Bur Dubai is the type of businesses that can be spotted along the roads of Deira. The legendary souks of Dubai are found in Deira. This includes the world famous gold souk as well as the famed spice souk of Dubai.
Bur Dubai
Visiting Deira and visiting Bur Dubai are two different types of experience. The premier motive for people to believe that Bur Dubai is much wealthier then neighboring Deira is due to the fact that Bur Dubai is more modern with many big and brand new structures and large malls.
Deira however offers visitors twisty and thin streets which are filled countless minute shops, Arabic restaurants and the whole atmosphere seems hectic and unorganized.
Deira Great for Shopping
If you love doing shopping at huge US style malls should be happy to know that these are also available in this area of Dubai. You can go shopping at US style malls in both Bur Dubai as well as Dubai.
A large number of shops and other businesses have over the last few years relocated from Bur Dubai to Deira as the rents are so much lower in the Deira side of Dubai.
Dubai at Night.
The evenings in Deira are much more alive with the streets filling up with many people. Local residents love having dinner at one of the many restaurants or to simply drink a coffee at one of the open air coffee. People watching seems to be the favorite activity for many people in Dubai.
The great atmosphere in this part of Dubai is surely a reason for many people to come and stay at a hotel in Deira rather than in one of the hotels in Bur Dubai.
Dhow Wharfage
Dhow Wharfage is an excellent attraction in Deira to go to. The Dhow Wharfage is one of the most visited attractions in Dubai by tourists.
Have a nice walk at the Dhow Wharfage and see how the local traders do business. These traders in this part can be compared to the old fashioned market sales guys in Europe.
Dubai traders located at the Dhow Wharfage offer clients all types of goods. These goods include fresh fruit and meat, mobile phones and sometimes even cars and boats.
