A larger version of the traditional Arabian boat known as “Dhow” also operates on the Dubai creek. So, when on Creek, you can consider taking a Dhow Cruise as well. 

As foreign traders started settling down in Dubai, their country’s textiles, jewellery, handicrafts, aromatic spices and antics became an integral part of the area. Today, it stands as the must visit tourist site in Dubai and its rich culture and heritage.
