Discover old and modern Kuwait in a half-day tour
Explore Mubarakia's old souk in Kuwait and taste our local and unique flavors
Mubarakia Souk, is the oldest market in Kuwait. . . so when I think about sharing personal experiences and stories that connect me to my location, the first thing that comes to mind is the first day I reached Kuwait and visit this place and from this moment I am addicted
to it. You can feel the varieties of the country there, Arabic, Persian, Indian and any other nationality you can find there. The most common word you can define there is Hala. . . hala and hiakom Allah, which means welcome and make you feel how the people who run these places are very welcoming and warm feelings people. How many times do I go there, especially in winter, to eat a portion of very delicious food and drink "Shayh" tea after
