Abu Dhabi Shopping
Traditional and cosmopolitan, Abu Dhabi's many shopping venues and locales reflect the emirate's nature. Shopping is an expedition, where visitors may find a gem of an antique carpet at one of the emirate’s traditional markets or pick up the latest season’s designer fashions in one of many ultra-modern shopping malls and boutiques. Abu Dhabi is home to many of the world’s top prestigious brand names, as well as a central market place for local and regional artisans producing high quality arts and craft.
Dubai Shopping
From Souk to Shopping Mall – Dubai Has It All – A True Shopper’s Paradise! Dubai’s reputation as a shopper’s paradise extends to many aspects of the city’s bustling commercial life.
