Marsa Al Seef Overview
Marsa Al Seef is a huge new tourist, leisure and retail district currently under construction in Bur Dubai. It is located alongside Dubai Creek and runs for approximately two kilometres and features a mix of shops, market stalls, hotels and promenades.
The district will highlight and preserve the local heritage and many of the buildings are designed in traditional Arabic style with narrow pedestrian streets and promenades. The design was inspired by local historic districts as well as traditional souqs in Oman and Qatar.
