EDITORS COMMENTS
Step back in time and immerse yourself in the charm of old Dubai with this stunning print of the Bastakia Quarter, nestled along the banks of Dubai Creek. This historic district is a treasure trove of traditional Arabian architecture, with its narrow alleys and wind towers that seem to whisper secrets of the past.
The quarter's name 'Bastakia' originates from the Arabic word for 'weaver', reflecting its rich history as a hub for textile production. The intricate wooden doors, ornate windows, and colorful facades are a testament to the region's cultural heritage. As you wander through these winding streets, you'll discover hidden gems like mosques, souks (markets), and ancient homes that have been beautifully restored to maintain their original character.
This scene captures the essence of Bur Dubai's unique blend of modernity and tradition. The majestic creek provides a picturesque backdrop, with abras (traditional wooden boats) gliding across its waters while dhows (traditional sailing vessels) bob gently against the shore.
As night falls, Bastakia Quarter transforms into a magical setting under twinkling lights. Take home this breathtaking print as a reminder of your journey through one of Middle East's most enchanting destinations.
