Jumeirah Plaza should probably be the most convenient mall to shop. It is situated in neighbourhood to most hotels. The plaza is somewhat older, set up in 1994. But its shopoholic appeal is still worth trying. Opened in 1994, by Dubai standards it's one of the older malls, although it's still very much worth a visit. You can easily shop homeware and jewellery here. Locals frequent this mall because its crowd is relatively lesser than others.
