The Anjuna Flea Market runs one day a week, every Wednesday, on the ground near Anjuna beach in North Goa. Hundreds of stalls sell clothing, jewellery, bags, handmade crafts and souvenirs, and bargaining is the whole game. Reviewers are split on it, some love the scale and variety, others find it overhyped, but it remains a fixture of a North Goa trip.

The Dubai Spice Souk in old Deira is a traditional covered market where the air fills with saffron, cinnamon, star anise and turmeric the moment you step in. Reviewers love it as an atmospheric, aromatic slice of old Dubai. Set expectations, though: the stalls are repetitive, many sell near-identical goods, vendors can be pushy, and some call it a tourist trap. Go for the experience and the photos, haggle hard, and buy selectively.
Nakheel Mall sits centrally on Palm Jumeirah and reviewers describe it as a clean, elegant, well laid-out mall with a good, if not sprawling, mix of retail, cafes, and restaurants (current signage and reviews refer to it as Palm Jumeirah Mall). It is generally well liked for its convenient location and comfortable layout, though a couple of reviewers flagged real friction points, dress-code enforcement disputes and at least one serious elevator outage.
