the blue souq by call_me_rhia
The blue souq is the largest souq in Sharjah - and it's especially magnificent for its architecture and islamic design. There are two main wings with about 600 shops - and the wings are connected with overhead covered tunnels. In one you can buy gifts and electronics, in the other gold, gems and jewels. Upstairs prices are cheaper than downstairs prices, because the rent for these shops is lower. Remember: the souq is open every day from 9 am to 1 pm AND from 4 pm to 11 pm. Between 1 pm and 4 pm only carpet shops are open.
