Start
the day with a cultural breakfast at
the
Sheikh
Mohammed Centre for Cultural
Understanding
(SMCCU), a rare opportunity to try
authentic Emirati food, learn about
local culture and ask any questions
you have about traditional and
contemporary Gulf life ? don't be
shy!
Make your next stop the compact and compelling Dubai Museum, housed in one of the city?s oldest buildings (a restored fort). After taking in the amusing dioramas of old souq (market) at the museum, take a late afternoon meander through the Bur Dubai souq while the traders are shaking off their siesta and check out the tempting textiles, sparkling slippers, cheap kitsch T-shirts. As the suns sets, stroll along the Creek's edge down to the Shindagha area.
