Souk Al Marfa — Local services in Dubai

Quick Review: Pros: • Peace & Quiet, • Asian Food & events.

Cons: • Not developed, • 25% shops are open, rest is closed, • Mostly cheap stuff, • Over priced to a certain degree, • uninspiring Interior.

Detailed review:

Souk al marfa has tremendous potential to be great, however, it's a poor knock off of Dragon Mart (from internation city) most of the things here are cheap. I.e clothing, toys, and other miscellaneous items. All items are so one deminsational, nothing to add value and nothing new per say. I brought some noodles, which costed 35 dhs, which is overpriced. Not to mention most of the shops are vacant, and those which are open are selling one deminsational items. Henceforth, it isn't enjoyable at all to buy from here.

Other aspect I would like to touch is that the interior is rather bland and uninspiring. There are pipes on the roof, and the flooring is basically lazy work. Some sections of the area has concrete floor, with single lighting. It gives off a cumbersome and claustrophobic feeling. (Please see the images below.)

Pros: There was an Asian event. Which I enjoyed, and the food was decently enjoyable. Other than that, the place is rather underdeveloped. If there were more events at a massive scale then it would be immensely enjoyable, like Songkran and lim festival.
