Looking for an enormous camel or elephant? Bob's got it! A pretty Turkish lantern? Yup! Handcrafted table linens, curtains, pillow covers, bowls, tribal drums and masks, unique carved furniture, inset boxes and nesting dolls... it's a treasure trove of goodness!
And though you may be rummaging around in a jam-packed warehouse, you are greeted by friendly staff handing out a sturdy bag for shopping and presenting drink refreshments on a silver platter to keep you hydrated during your hunt. Step through the heavy carved doors into one of many dark, overflowing rooms. You could easily get lost in this place but a lovely man escorts you from one large room through to another and another.
Photos weren't allowed so I don't have much to show but I will share the treasures I went home with...
Once we were finished and were ready to pay, we were all shown to a comfy Arabic sofa to wait, given wet wipes to clean our hands and treated to Arabic tea, biscuits and dates. Definitely the most hospitality I've ever experienced in a warehouse! Needless to say, I'll be seeing Bob again!
