Souk Al Arsah

Renovation works going on..now most of the shops are closed…but it’s a nice place..loved it 🥰

Looks like it could be an interesting shopping experience (and next door to the Sharjah Heritage Museum) but most shops are closed and there is currently a lot of renovation work being done. Will try again when the weather is cooler.

It is a beautiful place to visit. We have a variety of hand made items and antiques to see and buy. I enjoyed.

Visited during a festival, so it was fun and had a lot of traditional food and programs which are a must to watch

Souk Al Arsah. One of the oldest trading Souks of Sharjah, back in times when bedouins used to meet camels. It depicts an old traditional souk ambience of UAE. Wooden doors, Air conditioned pathways comprising shops with Perfumes, Sweets, Memoirs, Old gadgets, arabic coffee and many more.

Souq Al Arsah used to be a market place for traders from Persia, India and Bedouin tribes who bartered charcoal for rice. As one of popular Sharjah tourist places today, the souk is now a covered market with air-conditioned alleyways featuring solid wooden doors, beautiful coral brick walls and hanging lanterns that symbolise UAE culture. The quaint stores sell everything from pearl chests and copper coffee pots to jewellery, abayas and khandooras, which are important parts of the UAE traditional dress. You can also purchase perfume bottles and incense for the traditional oud scent. For heritage lovers, this souk should be high on the list of places to visit in Sharjah.

After a tour of the souk, you can review the day’s purchases over a cup of Arabic coffee at the café, and stock up on delicious sweets at the popular halwa shop. The souk is along the Sharjah corniche, close to the Heart of Sharjah. There are plenty of things to do with kids around, including the Sharjah Museum and Heart of Sharjah Sharjah Discovery Centre.
