Dubai, of course...
a designer destination
DUBAI IS EVERY city-loving girl’s dream destination – a
delicious cocktail of designer shopping, serene spas, stylish
venues for luscious lunches and super-glamorous hotels which
all offer the exceptional quality and gracious hospitality that have
become synonymous with Dubai.
Everyone likes to bag a bargain so the ancient markets,
gold souks, frequent shopping festivals and impressive modern
malls will not disappoint as prices are all tax-free. There are more
than 50 malls in the city including the revolutionary Dubai Mall
opening 30 October. One of the largest malls in the world, it has
more than 1,200 speciality stores including over 160 food and
drink outlets and Fashion Avenue, which is dedicated to haute
couture and has more than 70 signature stores. The mall’s Gold
Souk is the largest indoor souk in the world with over 220 of
the region’s most trusted gold and jewellery
retailers. The mall is also home to the Dubai Aquarium &
Discovery Centre and the Olympic-size Dubai Ice Rink.
To soak up a feel of the history and culture of shopping in
Dubai, wander through the old souks (markets). Dubai’s
position between Europe and Asia made it an important trading
port and dhows from Africa, India and beyond still bring in
herbs and spices to be sold in the Spice Souk.
Ladies who love to linger over lunch will be spoilt for
choice as the restaurants here showcase the very best
cuisine from around the world.
