It's a beautiful place, but you won't be able to walk along the streets, everything is blocked.The small part is open to tourists: for restaurants and shops.
An atmospheric place to spend the evening. Channels, restaurants, cafes, souvenir shops, pleasant music. Especially good for a sunset photo shoot against the backdrop of the famous sail hotel.
I was not impressed. There is a market, there are exits to the street, but not to walk around, everything is fenced off and there are restaurant tables all around. Wasted time. Why tour groups are taken there is a big question. You can take a great picture of the Parus hotel without entering the territory, but it turns out better from the road.
In general, if we take into account that this is not a historical landmark, but just a shopping center rigidly oriented to tourists, then everything falls into place.
Nevertheless, the place is of course very atmospherically built, in a well-seasoned style of an Arab bazaar, plus Venetian vibes. There is no entertainment here, but there are places to eat and souvenirs. In general, it is worth visiting, walking along the galleries and along the embankments. The place is interesting, although it is a new building.
There will be a lot of pain with a baby stroller, since there are a lot of stairs, and ramps are not everywhere.
I don't recommend it at all. They sell bullshit for tourists. You'd better go to the mall. The fake "Venice" was also not impressed. It's more like a theme park for kids. In general, there is nothing to do there at all, do not waste time. There are a lot of much more interesting places in Dubai
A beautiful place, an entourage. Sometimes they go boating on the canal. Inside there are shopping malls and cafes. I go there for the sake of a Belgian cafe with Belgian beer)))
An interesting place that combines buildings stylized as old Emirati buildings and beautiful canals with abrami. We advise you to take a ride on it. It costs 100 dirhams per person. The driver will show the most interesting angles for photos against the background of Burj Al-Arab, even offer help. There is a market stylized as an Arab bazaar
They are side by side, we can say that the same thing (in another pestilential review) this area is better for me than a noisy city. And the center is 15/20 minutes away by a good car
Place bomb ) there is a mini market , a restaurant , och beautiful views of Bursh Ala rab the top hotel in the world. For photos and walks, this is just a godsend
The best impressions when visiting, it's beautiful in the bazaar, it's nice to sit in a cafe on the pier.
Also, if you find a small fountain, you will get a bonus
Nice territory. In the evening, there are several fountains with live music by the water, you need to book a table in advance, there may not be seats, and people are in no hurry to leave, the place is very nice and cozy, delicious food
A corner of an oriental fairy tale in an ultra-modern city. Good souvenir shops where sellers don't bother you. Restaurants are not cheap, but there is alcohol

A very pleasant place, an oasis for relaxation. There are many souvenir shops, restaurants. Beautiful architecture, water channels create a special atmosphere. Several times we walked there and promised/had dinner.
The market is expensive, for tourists))) to cheat, to sell at exorbitant prices. You can look around cleanly, but I don't advise buying anything there. The place is beautiful, Dubai Venice))
