Dubai Spice Souq, An Exotic Experience !

Just next to the Gold Souq is the Spice Souq. Many tourists visiting Dubai thoroughly enjoy visiting the spice souq in Deira as it’s a true pleasure walking around this particular Deira souq. The intensive and exotic aroma of the different spices which includes valuable saffron, cinnamon, cardamom, nuts, henna and aniseed, entices many visitors into purchasing some spices at this Deira Souq. Other items that are offered by the shops in the Deira spice souk include various herbs and special perfumed oil which local healers and pharmacists have been using to make their own special and traditional medicine for centuries. Potteries, souvenirs, various types of baskets, rice, textiles, rugs, incense etc are also sold. Bargaining is something that you ought not to forget to do here. We moved around, bargaining some artifacts. The spice market is a fantastic experience, you should not miss.
