Never Visit These 5 Places For Christmas Shopping In Dubai

Dubai is one of the cities in the United Arab Emirates where many expatriates live and, therefore, celebrates Christmas magnificently.

If you live in Dubai or want to celebrate Christmas and New Year in Dubai, you would definitely like to prepare yourself for Christmas and New Year by buying the goods you need.

Shopping in this city is one of the best things you can do, but if you don’t have enough information about the worst malls in Dubai, you may accidentally enter them and buy low-quality goods and waste your time.

I have lived in this city for several months, and I know the most inappropriate places for New Year’s and Christmas shopping, and I want to introduce them to you to prevent you from visiting them.

The worst malls in Dubai where you should not shop for Christmas

If you don’t want to have a bad memory of Dubai, don’t ever go to the places I introduce below because each of them has flaws that can ruin your day.

Warba Center

I am very interested in discovering places that few people have talked about. When I was walking on Abu Bakr Street, I saw a shopping center from afar, and I quickly went there to write a report about it for you.

When I entered Warba Center, I was really surprised because it was of lower quality than other shopping centers in Dubai.

This shopping center was one of the dirtiest shopping centers that I had visited in Dubai.

It also had an unpleasant smell that made me unable to stay there for more than 15 minutes. In addition to all these cases, the security of this shopping center had an unpleasant behavior with the visitors.

The shops in this shopping center were also not attractively decorated, and these reasons made me put this shopping center on the list of the worst shopping centers in Dubai for shopping at Christmas and advise you not to visit it.

Sonapur neighborhood

Sonapur is one of the slums in Dubai, located in the Deira district. There are no skyscrapers in Sonapur, and most Indians and Pakistanis live in this neighborhood.

This neighborhood is very dirty compared to the rich neighborhoods of Dubai, and I do not recommend you to visit it.

You may have heard that some goods are cheap in this neighborhood, but you must know that people with low incomes in Dubai live in this neighborhood, and some goods may be sold cheaper than in other neighborhoods in Dubai, but you must know that these goods are not of good quality.

If you like to visit this neighborhood and do not follow my recommendations, at least don’t stay overnight in this neighborhood and visit there in the morning.

Al Reef Mall

This shopping center is one of the forgotten shopping centers in Dubai. It was very prosperous in the past, and many people visited it, but today, due to the construction of newer shopping centers in Dubai, few people go to this mall in that the prices of the goods are high.

Therefore, it is better not to visit this shopping center and spend your time visiting other modern shopping centers in Dubai.

When I entered this mall, the only thing that caught my attention was the charming Christmas decorations in this mall, which were perfect for photography.

Al Mulla Plaza

When I went to this mall, I thought it was closed because no one was there, but after walking around for a while, I realized that the shops in this mall are open, but few people are shopping in this mall.

This mall is very boring, and it is better not to waste your time visiting it because it is a forgotten mall.

Sunset mall

In my opinion, the worst place to shop for Christmas in Dubai is Sunset Mall. The salespeople in this mall do not give you any help as if they don’t like to sell their goods. There are also inappropriate and strange shops in this mall.

All this has made me think that this shopping center is used as a place for money laundering.

As a result of the above

There are mafias in all cities, and the mafia controls some shopping malls in Dubai. And for this reason, some of them continue to operate without any logical reason.

I don’t know which of these malls are run by the mafia, and I just shared my experiences with you so that you don’t go to the wrong places in Dubai for New Year and Christmas shopping.

Dubai has a dark side that few people talk about and not many people know about. These shopping centers were one of the dark parts of Dubai that I tried to give you information about.
