The Dubai Shopping Festival (DSF) is adding six oriental bazaars to the event, bringing together the historic markets of Cairo, Aleppo, Sanaa, Isfahan, Marakesh and India in a traditional street setting.

The bazaars include leather, footwear, fabrics and jewellery, and will feature artisans at work, including tanning and drying leather products.

DSF is an event based on the theme ‘One World, One Family, One Festival’. The 2006/2007 festival will run from December 20 to February 2.
