Dubai Spice Souk

سوق التوابل

The Dubai Spice Souk is the spice market among the traditional Deira markets on Dubai Creek.

Why go

The Spice Souk is one of Deira's traditional markets, which a 2020 Government of Dubai Media Office release traces to 1850 and ties to the harbour on Dubai Creek; the release says the Gold, Perfume, Textile and Spice souks still serve as commercial centres for residents and tourists. OpenStreetMap maps it as a marketplace, also called the Old Souk, in Al Ras. This record is the market as a whole, not a single stall and not the neighbouring Gold Souk.
