From here drive to the Blue Mosque, known as the Al Farooq Omar Bin Al Khattab Mosque. This religious shrine was inspired by Ottoman and Andalusian styles of architecture and can accommodate around 2000 worshippers. It has wonderful interiors decorated with beautiful chandeliers and a library that is home to a collection of almost forty thousand books related to different religions.
Once you have explored the Blue Mosque, your sightseeing in modern Dubai comes to an end. Now, it is time to head to old Dubai to understand the origins and evolution of this wonderful city. Drive to Old Dubai and the Creek side, where it all began. Hop in an abra (water taxi), the city's oldest mode of transport, to cross the Creek. Visit the Gold and Spice Souk for quick shopping. The Gold Souk is renowned for its wide collection of gold jewellery, while the Spice Souk brims with aromatic spices, herbs, nuts, oil, saffron and so on.
