Reasons to visit Kuwait City
Retail therapy at Souq Al-Mubarakiya
One of Kuwait City’s oldest marketplaces, Souq Al-Mubarakiya is a sprawling hub of vibrant activity. It delights and captivates the senses, and acts as a fascinating window into traditional Kuwait.
Wander through the heady, scent-infused air, browsing the colourful stalls and haggling with traders for bargains. With mountains of spices and everything from perfumes to clothes, jewellery and antiques on offer, you’re sure to find something you will like.
It also provides the perfect opportunity to try some fresh, authentic Middle Eastern cuisine – either from the stalls or at one of the small restaurants nearby.
Enter the surreal world of the Mirror House
The Mirror House is one of the most bizarre and unique attractions in Kuwait City. The entire building is covered in mirror mosaics both inside and out, creating an eclectic, glittering wonderland experience.
Each room has a different theme – such as ‘The Universe’ or ‘Knowledge’ – and guided tours with explanations from the artist, Lidia, are available in English. There is also a gallery on the first floor exhibiting other artwork by Lidia and her husband. Tours are by appointment only because the house is a private residence, so make sure you book your tickets in advance.
Take a tour of the Grand Mosque
When you fly to Kuwait City, a trip to the extravagant Grand Mosque is a must. The largest mosque in the country, it can accommodate up to 10,000 worshippers in the main hall alone.
Some of its more opulent features include huge chandeliers and a courtyard lined with palm trees, while the interior colour scheme is almost entirely blues and golds to match the surrounding environment.
Free guided tours are available in English, which include a glimpse into the Amir’s private prayer room. Female visitors will be provided with a headscarf and abaya (robe-style dress) to wear.
Things to know before you fly to Kuwait City
Airport transfers
Kuwait International Airport (KWI) is only about 10 miles south of Kuwait City and getting to the city centre is straightforward. Buses leave from outside the arrivals hall, and tickets can be purchased on board. Alternatively, take a taxi into the city in just 20-30 minutes or book a transfer with Etihad.
Cultural considerations
Kuwait is a traditional Islamic country, governed by long-standing customs – for example, alcohol and pork products are illegal. Visitors should dress modestly and refrain from public displays of affection. During Ramadan businesses may be closed or have reduced hours, and you should avoid eating and drinking in public.
Getting around
The main bus company in Kuwait City is the Kuwait Public Transport Company. Many visitors choose to get around by taxi as well. There is also a car-hailing app called Careem (similar to Uber), which may be more convenient if you have Wi-Fi access.
Plugs
Kuwait uses the type C and G sockets, both two and three-pin systems. Standard voltage and frequency are 230V/50Hz. Pack a universal plug adaptor should you require one to be able to charge your devices during your trip.
