        Deira’s historical markets hold significant prominence as traditional commercial hubs, dating
        back to the 19th century. These markets have undergone restoration, rehabilitation, and

        classification based on their types. Among them is the Grand Souq in Bur Deira, famously

        known as the ‘Al Dhalam Souq’ or Darkness Market, renowned for its diverse range of
