Deira is a nice district of Dubai and over the years, it is becoming more and more crowded with hotels. The region of Deira is very attractive and it is a nicely developing district, which gives home to many hotels. If the last huge palm shaped artificial island the Palm Deira will get ready, then Deira will be one of the most popular districts of Dubai for sure. Deira hotels are cheaper than the hotels in the New Dubai area.
Deira has many things that other sites in Dubai cannot offer. First, there is the Dubai Creek. Deira faces Dubai Creek from one side and the sea from the other, which make it a very attractive district. Deira have not been as famous as the opposite lying Bur Dubai in the development, but it is very attractive for its huge souks, which is the name of the traditional Arabic style covered marketplace just like the Textile souk, the Spice Souk, the Fish Souk, the Perfume Souk and the most popular of all: the huge Gold Souk. Tourists mainly spend the longest time in the Gold Souk of Deira and it is really no wonder. Featuring an amazing number of jewellery shops of all sorts and kinds the offer of the Gold Souk is the biggest in gold in the Middle East. As Deira gives place for the more economical hotels too, Indians lead many of the Deira hotels.
Another great attraction of Deira is its beautiful dhow wharfage. The dhows are Arabic type of vessels, which were and still are widely used for transportation of all sorts of goods, all around the Middle East, even getting as far as India or Africa. The dhows look great and although they are still widely used in the Gulf area, you can get the change to ride on one, as a sightseeing cruise. The evening dhow cruises are widely popular because they feature dinner with some dancing or musical shows. Of course the belly dancers are the most popular to get asked to perform a show for the tourists. Deira hotels all offer this program for you to book.
Deira is famous for the opposite lying Bur Dubai too, where you can easily get with the use of a local Abra. That is how local water taxis are called. There is also a huge bridge going from Deira to Bur Dubai. If you go through that bridge, which is just crossing the delta of the Creek where it meets the sea, you can get to the Dubai Heritage and Fishing village and get to visit the Al Maktoum memorabilia museum and house just next to the Heritage Village. Deira is the most famous for its’ shopping possibilities of course. Its biggest shopping mall the huge Deira City Centre offers just everything with the best international goods. What is further good in the Deira City centre is that it has a huge Carrefour hypermarket inside which is a perfect place for every tourist to shop food, drinks, basic cosmetics, cheap garments and just anything else they need. Deira hotels are often apartments for making stay longer and cosier for tourists.
