Introduction

Located in the historical center of Dubai, Dubai Creek has played a role in nurturing the city since ancient times. Walking along the coast, you can hear the gentle waves hitting the docks, the calls of vendors, and the towering skyscrapers next to the ancient markets, forming a unique contrast. This place is known as the "real Dubai" where you can discover various traditional markets, such as the gold market, textile market, and spice market. You can also spend 1 AED to take a traditional wooden sailboat Abra across Dubai Creek, which is one of the best experiences in Dubai. Watching the sunset and observing large cargo ships coming and going from the Indian Ocean, while the prayer calls echo from the mosque, you can experience a completely different Dubai.
