There
are plentiful opportunities in Kuwait to buy modern clothing, household
goods, cosmetics, perfumes, and many other items imported from all
over the world. There are many modern facilities with spacious walkways
and attractive shop displays, such as the Salhiya Complex in the city,
Al-Watiya behind the Sheraton Hotel, the Zahra Complex and Laila Galeria
in Salmiya, the Muthana Complex across from Le Meridien, and the Al-Othman
Complex in Hawally. In addition, there are many major shopping areas,
or souks, in districts such as Salmiya, Fahaheel, Hawally, and elsewhere.
These offer not only consumer items but may also include opticians,
travel agents, and amusement centres for children. |
Kuwait's shopping centres have everything
from a multitude of novel and high-quality designer brands to excellently
constructed economical alternatives. Men and women will find beautifully
tailored suits and dresses in the Salhiya and Zahra Complexes and
Laila Galeria, to name a few. . Good places to go for sporty clothes
are the Al-Watiya Complex and the shopping street in Salmiya on Salem
Al-Mubarak Street between the Zahra Complex and Laila Galeria. Casual
shoes, sports shoes, and dress shoes are on sale in all shopping areas
and malls. Comfortable Birkenstocks, with a full range of styles,
are in the same price range. Traditional Oils, select leather goods
come from Italy, France, America, and elsewhere. Handbags, briefcases,
and wallets are good buys, and along with manicure sets, key rings,
belts, shaving kits, and eyeglass cases, they make wonderful gifts
to take back home. |
Men's and women's
perfume and cosmetics shops carry almost every conceivable brand of
scent and color. There are many outlets all over the city, and every
mall and souk has two or three perfumes and cosmetic shops. Watches
and clocks, pens, tea and coffee cups, scarves, boxes, and silver
jewelry are some of the other many choices one has when it comes to
buying gifts. Colored Iranian glassware, such as perfume bottles and
lamps, and carpets from all over, can be found in malls, modern shopping
areas and in hotel gift shops. The easiest item to buy in Kuwait is
gold. There are numerous gold souks, offering a multitude of pieces
in traditional Arabian designs and motifs, as well as designs influenced
by Indian Mughal jewelry. There is a very large one in the Souk Al-Kuwait
building opposite the Gulf Bank, and a smaller one on the main shopping
street in Salmiya. If visitors want to take home gold jewelry reminiscent
of 1001 Arabian Nights, this is the place. |
