Separated
from Bur Dubai by the Dubai Creek, Deira is the business
and commercial heart of Dubai and offers some of the
best shopping. Deira is also close to the historic
quarter of Dubai, Bastakia, with its traditional wind-tower
houses and narrow streets and the area is also well
known for its fascinating souks. Ban Yas Square is
the centre of Deira and is dominated by the Deira
Tower with its many clothes and electrical shops.
