    Do you like 21k and 22k gold? Then this is your place! Very nice souk to walk around and shop, or just walk around. Most of the souk is shaded so it’s perfect if you are visiting during the summer. We did and it was hot but the shade helped a lot. Beware, merchants will not leave you alone trying to sell you something so be patient and send them away with a nice “no thank you”.

    An amazing place to look around and window shop. Lots to see. Gold diamonds and other precious metals and stones. Lots of chaps asking you about watches & hand bags but beware they maybe copies. Also lots of street sellers of drinks & nuts best make sure you have some water with you
