Souq Al-Mubarakiya

Souq Al-Mubarakiya

The beating heart of old Kuwait, this historic souq has traded for generations in spices, oud, gold, textiles and antiques. Locals come as much for the atmosphere and street food as the shopping.

Expect a warren of covered lanes plus open-air cafés and traditional food stalls.

Local tip: Go in the cooler evening, haggle gently, and stop for tea among the traders.
