Explore the souq

Cairo and Kuwait are both cities home to historic, bustling markets and Souq Al-Mubarakiya provides a fine example of Kuwait’s heritage. The souq is one of the most traditional areas of Kuwait, where the atmosphere remains mostly untouched by modern advances.

Previously one of the most important parts of the city, it served as the centre for Kuwait’s trade before the oil discovery. Wander around its labyrinth-like lanes to find apothecary goods, spices and perfumes.
