      Deira is one of the oldest areas of Dubai, situated north of the Dubai Creek and is known for being the original commercial hub of the city. It is famous for its souks (Gold Souk, Spice Souk, Fish Market) as well as its many alleys and side streets dotted with shops selling clothes, shoes, electronics, hardware, perfumes and toys.

      Like parts of Bur Dubai, it is densely populated and contains mostly apartment buildings and commercial retail spaces. The traffic congestion, age of most buildings and flats and also proximity to the airport influence the rental amounts for flats in Deira making it an affordable choice for many. Deira has many iconic buildings including the Deira Twin Towers (with the Rolex logo), Dubai Chamber of Commerce, the Etisalat Head Office and the Emirates NBD Head Office. Apartments in Al Riqqa and the flats in Muraqqabat are always popular as are the buildings around Baniyas Square, Port Saeed and Al Mamzar.

      Residents of Deira make good use of public transport as traffic in the area can sometimes be quite intense. Abras are traditional boats that ferry passengers across the creek between Deira and Bur Dubai and these are very affordable with most trips costing just 1 dirham.Deira has the lovely City Centre Deira which is very popular with residents along with many other smaller malls like Naif Souk, Al Manal Centre, Gargash Centre and many others.
