Dubai Souks

'Souk' is the Arabic word, which stands for the market or place where any kind of goods are brought or exchanged. Traditionally, Arabic shipping vessels discharge their cargos brought from the Far East, China, Ceylon and India on the docks, which would be bargained over in the souks adjacent to the docks. Dubai souks are busy places with people negotiating with the shopkeepers in the traditional style of doing business. Dubai souks are located at Deira and sells gold jewelry, traditional spices, perfumes and fishes.


I love the spices shot, actually, I have a very similar photo hanging in my kitchen. Shisha is great too, the colors are wonderful.

So now we know where all the people are who were missing from your last post! Shopping! This is a wonderful set, but I got to admit Spices is my favorite.... the colors and composition are spot on. And the saffron pops!

spice souk is my favorite with the spices close behind. Both are nicely composed and exposed. I have a feeling there is more to come and that you're saving the best for last. ;-)

Considering what saffron costs in the stores here, that bag would be worth a fortune.
