In our article, we will talk about outlets in Dubai. I would like to immediately note that one of the favorite attractions of tourists who flew to the UAE is shopping. In Dubai, you can buy anything you want, from perfumery to technology. But not all products are profitable to buy here.
It is worth going for:
exotic fruits;
various spices;
high-quality cosmetics;
bags and suitcases (here they are very cheap);
gold jewelry, the price of which does not exceed the price for silver in Russia, as well as diamonds.
You should not fly to Dubai for clothes and appliances.
So, it goes over to the important question: where do you buy quality things? What centers of Dubai should every tourist visit? About it further.
Dubai Mall
This is a huge shopping and entertainment center. Here, tourists can stay for several days. There are:
70 luxury stores.
The huge oceanarium.
More than 200 stores with gold jewelry.
Huge children's center.
Theme park.
Several cinemas and more.
Mall of the Emirates
This is the second largest shopping center in the city. There are many boutiques of luxury brands. It also has a hypermarket with a large assortment of fresh products. Expensive items are sold on the second floor, while the first ones are cheaper.
"Ibn Battuta Mall"
This is not just a shopping center, but a landmark of the United Arab Emirates. The highlight of the shopping center is precisely the interior design. The whole complex is divided into zones that are dedicated to China, Persia, Egypt, etc.
In this center there are many places where you can buy quality goods at affordable prices. On the ground floor of the complex are various outlets. The mall is open from 10 a.m. to 10 p.m. Located near the center of Dubai. Mall address: Jebel Ali Vilage. There is a metro stop of the same name next to it.
Wafi City Mall
This complex is a shopaholic's dream. Here is a very large assortment of products from various categories. There are various boutiques, as well as attractions. The complex is decorated in the style of Ancient Egypt. A light show called "The Return of the Pharaoh" is held here daily at 21:30. It is especially liked by young children. There is covered free parking at the shopping center. The address of this mall is Oud Metha Road. He works from ten in the morning until ten in the evening.
"Marina Mall"
This is a fairly large shopping and entertainment complex, which is located at Sheikh Zayed Road. It stands out among other shopping centers with a calm and quiet atmosphere, the absence of noisy crowds, as well as queues. This complex has 160 outlets. Among them: discounts of clothes (casual, sports), inexpensive outlets, boutiques, a large supermarket and household appliances stores. Here you can see the products of local manufacturers. There is an ice rink in the mall, a theme park and a large number of restaurants.
The complex operates from 10 am to 11 pm. You can get to it by taxi, bus or metro (get off at the station of the same name). By the way, many hotels organize transfers to and from large malls and outlets in Dubai. Tourists can thus in the evening visit entertainment complexes.
Outlet village
This outlet is one of the youngest in Dubai. It has become one of the favorite places for shopping among tourists who like to save. Since it is here that you can find branded items and designer clothes with a discount of up to 90%. Also in this place it is very profitable to purchase home decorations and textiles. For those who want to have fun, this outlet has an indoor ice rink, as well as various cafes. Note that in this complex there are no mass-market goods.
Located at Sheikh Zayed Rd. How to get to the outlet in Dubai? You can get on a free shuttle from the hotel or a large shopping center. Note that Outlet Village works every day.
By the way, be aware that malls and outlets in Dubai are a popular destination not only among visiting tourists, but also among local citizens. In order to avoid the crowd, enjoy the absence of a large crowd of people, it is best to go there to Ramadan.
"Outlet Mall Dubai"
Planning to purchase branded items at the lowest prices in the Emirates? Then head to the Outlet Mall Dubai. In this complex there are no separate boutiques with things from Gucci, luxury cafes. But there is a wide assortment of very high-quality shoes and clothes that have remained from past collections.
Here, unfortunately, you cannot buy clothes of luxury brands, as in Outlet Village. But in this place there are many mass-market goods at fairly affordable prices. In addition, there are advantageous offers for the sale of the second (or third) unit as a gift.
I would like to advise those who like rich aromas to go to the Arab perfume boutique, which is located on the top floor. Here is a great perfume, which you can buy at a discount up to 50%. Also on the second floor there are shops with quality accessories and leather shoes. There you can buy goods at affordable prices.
Located on the outskirts of Outlet Mall Dubai. In the reviews, people write that you can get to it by taxi or by free bus.
Little conclusion
Shopping in Dubai is a very profitable and quite exciting activity. In this city you can spend time not only with pleasure, but also with benefit. Therefore, every tourist should visit the outlets in Dubai.
