Hotels in Deira |
Deira is situated on the north creek of Dubai splitting the city in two. It is an interface between the high-rise business city and the traditional Arab trading port.
Modern malls give way to ancient souks selling silks, spices, gold, perfumes, and a lively fish market.
A broad waterfront promenade leads past the dhow wharf, where the wooden vessels offload their cargos. Beyond lie the dhow boat-building yards, and Dubai Creek's ritzy golf and yacht club.
