Deira is the oldest part of Dubai and has plenty to offers in terms ofhotels, restaurants, souks and shops.
Frenetic Deira sits on the east bank of Dubai Creek, where dhows carrying imported goods sail back and forth across the water, overlooked by waterside skyscraper hotels and shopping malls. Simple Arabic shawarma cafes surround the discount jewellery stores at Dubai Gold Souk, with turmeric and saffron sold in the Spice Souk.
