Wonderful local experience. Just mind the parking and time of day for visit. Try a late afternoon to also enjoy the evening vibes. Good place to buy souvenirs and get the authentic old shopping Kuwaiti experience.
This popular traditional market is located in Kuwait City, between Abdullah Al-Mubarak, Abdullah Al-Salem & Palestine Streets. This market has been around for at least 200 years. The market was damaged in 1990; however, it was renovated and it got back its traditional flavor. You can spend hours in this market strolling around and discovering reasonable bargains on heritage goods such as Persian silk carpets, real Arab antiques, perfumes like musk and oud, and traditional costumes. This place is perfect whether you want to shop, eat, or for sightseeing
Very big! Lovely atmosphere with mix cultural shops, clothes, toys, dry spices, fresh fish market, Oud perfume shops food places and street Art
Simply put, the best traditional classic place to visit is all kinds of shops available at affordable prices .
Souk Al Mubarakiya is a ~300 year old market in central Kuwait city. It's actually several markets that merged into one. The fish market, the vegetable market, gold market, and the perfume market are the most famous markets in Al Mubarakiya. It's also the host for the first school in Kuwait, the Mubarakiya School, opened in 1911, and the Mubarak Kiosk. The market, school, and kiosk were named after the founder of modern Kuwait and the 7th Emir of Kuwait Mubarak Al Sabah.
This market is one of the oldest markets in kuwait. It gets crowded mostly in winter. You can find a lot of stores that sells traditional things. Like gold stores, restaurants, cafes, fish market, meat markets, vegetable stores, and a lot of other stores. You can find almost everything here or around this place. The store owners are kind and respectful. The other nice thing about this market is the atmosphere. You can come shopping with your family and friends, and while shopping there are plenty of places for the kids to get entertained. You also can find stores that sells wholesale products but you should look for them. It was an amazing experience we’ve enjoyed it.
