WHAT TO BUY IN DUBAI ? | UAE Travel Guide

Dubai loves to shop. The city has just about perfected the art of the mall. Dubai is considered as a shopper’s paradise. Dubai is one of the most popular shopping capitals of the world. The shopaholics from around the world visit Dubai for shopping, even they route their flight through Dubai for shopping only; there is something for everyone to buy in the UAE. Bargains abound but you do need to know where to look.

Carpets


The city of Dubai is the paradise for carpet lovers. Most popular ones are fine Persian carpets, Kurdish kilims, colorful Turkish and rough-knotted Bedouin rugs. You will find very fine quality carpets at good prices. Well you have to do some bargaining. There are hundreds and thousands of choices to choose from. Quality of these rugs is mostly judged by the method used to process wool. You should know how the wool was treated to make a rug or carpet. If a rug is made with acid-treated wool, it will not look as rich after some years as it was when you bought it. On the other hand, rugs made by proper treatment of wool last for years and don’t lose their color and shine.


Gold


You should visit the famous GoldSouk to buy gold. Here you can find all types of gold jewelry in different shades like yellow, pink, green etc. Dubai sells and imports huge amount of gold. Once you walk around Gold Souk, you will come to know that it indeed deserves this title. You will find row upon row of shops with dazzling displays of gold jewellery in every conceivable design and purity: Eighteen- and 22-carat are common, but 24-karat is also available, although the deep yellow hue of the high-carat jewellery is not to everyone’s taste. If you wish you can also purchase kilo bars, ten tola bars, small minted bars and gold bullion bars. The basic cost of the gold is set by weight daily – check the daily prices in the local newspapers.


Khanjars


One can find beautiful khanjars here.  Khanjars are the curved dagger of Islamic countries. Usually the handles of khanjars were made from the horns of rhino but these days handles made of wood are also very common. The general khanjars contains 2 rings in which the belt is attached and its scabbards are beautifully adorned with silver wire. The difficulty of these silver wired-thread patterns determines the cost of the khanjars. However, the Sayidi khanjars consists of 5 rings and are mostly covered n silver sheet with very less or no wire. The costs of these khanjars are determined by its weight and craftsmanship.
Pashminas


Fakes are found all over the world, but in Dubai you’ll find bargains on real, silky-soft 100% pashmina shawls. Women around the world adore pashminas, those feather-light cashmere shawls worn by the Middle East’s best-dressed ladies. If you’re shopping for a girlfriend or your mother, you can never go wrong with a pashmina. They come in hundreds of colors and styles, some beaded and embroidered others with pompom edging – you’ll have no trouble finding one you like.

But aside from setting it alight to make sure it doesn’t melt (as polyester does), how can you be sure it’s real? Here’s the trick. Hold the fabric at its corner. Loop your index finger around it and squeeze hard. Now pull the fabric through. If it’s polyester, it won’t budge. If it’s cashmere, it’ll pull through – though the friction may give you a mild case of rope burn. Try it at home with a thin piece of polyester before you hit the shops; then try it with cashmere. You’ll never be fooled again.


Perfume
Every conceivable perfume is available in the UAE. Large perfume stores sell all the Western brands at very good prices. Smaller shops in the souqs stock local perfumes, a fragrant mix of Arabian oil blended to suit your requirements, but beware they are strong! You can also purchase incense such as frankincense.

Food Items

Some foodstuffs are also popular here which you should buy. These include cardamom flavored condensed milk which tastes great in coffee. Natco rose syrup is also a specialty which is often poured over ice cream. You should also buy saffron as it is cheaper here in Dubai. Zataar is also used in soups and salads so buy this. Zataar is actually made of thyme, sesame, oregano and marjoram. Sumac is also a food item. It is actually a spice having lemon like taste. Buy this and add it in salads, kebabs and other Middle Eastern dishes.

Some Luxuries Things Not To Miss in Dubai


Dubai one of the world’s most opulent destinations – are spoilt for choice when it comes to seeking luxury. The city has become one the most popular playgrounds of the rich and famous, and has made many a statement with several of the world’s tallest buildings, man-made islands and even a huge indoor ski slope and all this in the middle of a desert.  Here are five luxuries you won’t want to miss on a visit to Dubai.
The Gold Souk

Unlike anything you have seen in the world, Dubai’s Gold Souk is a market that showcases seemingly endless amounts of gold jewelry. Dubai is known for really cheap gold — but you'll have to haggle for it. Whether or not you're ready to buy, a stroll through the dazzling Gold Souk is a must. The stores also offer platinum, diamonds and occasionally silver, and the government keeps tight control over the quality of all the merchandise, so rest assured that your purchases will be genuine.(The same cannot be said, however, of the street vendors outside hawking "genuine fake" watches and "Guuci" handbags.) If something in the window catches your fancy, be sure to barter — persistent protest capped with a walkway will get merchants to drop their asking price by as much as half. Less atmospheric, but even cheaper, is the Gold & Diamond Park, where you can find unique designs or get jewelers to recreate pieces for you at a fraction of the cost of the original.


Dubai Hot Air Balloon

If you still have a head for heights, then why not see Dubai and the surrounding desert from a hot air balloon? Leave the glitz and glamour of Dubai behind and join this early-morning hot-air balloon expedition deep in the heart of the desert. Rising early to see the desert is something you'll never forget! Prepare for an exhilarating flight with unrivaled views as you enjoy a magic carpet ride over giant red sands, emerald green oases, gazelles and wandering camels. Wake up early and watch the sunrise on this one-hour Dubai balloon flight deep into the heart of the desert Unforgettable views. Personalized flight certificate for every passenger, signed by the Pilot-in-Command.


Brunch in Dubai

To brunch in Dubai is a way of life, the weekend starts early on a Friday with an all-you-can-eat and drink mentality. If you are holidaying in Dubai and visiting on a Friday, you must experience the traditional 'Friday Brunch' which has now become a standard feature across Dubai.  Friday is the first day of the weekend and a religious day; therefore you'll find most places of interest shut during the morning to allow for Friday prayers.  In the past, major shopping malls would only open from 1pm, but now laws are more relaxed and the malls do open earlier.  You will find many expats choose to stay up late on a Thursday and relish the lie-in and slow Friday start with a trip to one of the Brunch haunts in the majority of Dubai hotels.  Brunch normally starts at 12.30 and it is advised not to eat anything before you arrive.  You will be greeted with a feast of food - that will be hard to absorb, even with just your eyes!  If it’s your first time, go for one of the mid range options where you know the food is of good quality and variety and if with children, there are deals and of course activities to keep them happy.  If you really want to splash out, go for one of the top five star hotels that offer a champagne brunch with all the trimmings (non- alcoholic package will be available and cheaper), this will really be the icing of your holiday and will leave you so full, you'll be on salad and soup the next day! Be sure to make a reservation beforehand for any Friday Brunch venue.

The Beach

You'll definitely want to see the shore while you're in town. The posher beach hotels have partitioned off the majority of the sand, so if you're not staying on the Jumeirah beach strip, your best bet is Al Mamzar, a public beach near the neighboring emirate of Sharjah. The clogged artery of a road that connects the cities means it's frustratingly inaccessible during the work week. Other good alternatives are Jumeirah Beach Park with its small coffee shop and AED 5 ($1.30) entrance fee, or the free stretch of sand running the length of Umm Suqeim, known as Kite Beach due to its popularity with the city's kite-surfers. If you insist on a more luxurious beach experience, then a few hotels will allow you to sit on their sand for a fee

WHERE TO STAY IN DUBAI


Dubai is “Dubai” there is no competition to it! With Burj Al Arab (a 7-star hotel) and the highest manmade landmark (Burj Al Khalifa) in its kitty, it can win that travel trophy without any doubt! The luxury life style, splendid spas, serenity of breathtaking sunsets and white sandy beaches is experienced in Dubai.
Now, when you are in Dubai, you won’t have to worry about the accommodation! There are enough roofs under which you can get a secure shelter! All you have to do is to count your money and make a choice! If you are rich (and I mean RICH), then the best option would be the 7-star property which I extolled earlier (yes, that Burj Al Arab)!
But if you are a modest traveler, then do not gulp! There are plenty of other 3-star hotels which are great and still quite cheap! A few budget hotels would be Hyatt Regency, Movenpick Hotel Deira, Capitol Hotel and Coral Oriental. These are pretty luxurious but the tariffs are lower.
If you want to extract maximum pleasure from your trip, you need to book a holiday home in a neighborhood that not only fulfill your accommodation and dining needs rather, it also provides easy access to places you have planned to visit or at least main city attractions like shopping malls, entertainment, leisure and dining facilities, than some of the places are:



Jumeirah
For beach lovers, Jumeriah beach will be the best suburb to book a holiday home for your accommodation. There are number of glamorous resorts, hotels and beach clubs you can choose as accommodation for your holiday trip. Palm Jumeriah and Umm Suqeim are main sub rubs of Jumeirah District. Madinat Jumeriah at Umm Suqeim and luxury resorts and hotels at Palm Jumeirah and Jumeriah .

Dubai Marina
Dubai Marina provides best accommodation for those who want to enjoy real luxury lifestyle of Dubai, as this neighborhood is full with ultra modern apartment and hotel buildings. The neighborhood possesses almost everything from modern accommodation to luxury shopping amenities. The Address, Grosvenor House and Dusit Residence are few renowned luxury hotel in Dubai Marina, where you can book your holiday home.


If your budget is really low then try booking a room at Dream Palace Hotel or Holiday Inn. They are very pocket-friendly and meant for people like me:P

Instead of hotels, you may also find suitable self catering accommodation in serviced apartment projects like Nuran Marina Serviced Residences. Habtoor Grand Resort & Spa can be the best place to visit if you want to relax your body and soul.

Alternately, you can buy Cheap DubaiPackages from a trusted website t2everywhere.com and let the travel planner put you in a good hotel.
