A little empty when we went. We found most items quite expensive.
Another spotless mall with a more traditional style of decor, lots of colourful stores and a nice place to cool off from the heat. Sellers all try to get you to buy which is one downside if you just want to look around.

Nice place to shop there is mall also on the other side. Souk area alot of pushy vendors but it's part of the game. Got souvenirs here which is better than getting from the airport.
Nice place to buy transitional craft, especially beautiful hand-made cashmere shawl. Very clear and organized stores.
