shoping malls and souqs

There are many more shoping malls than the souqs in the UAE, such as Marina mall, AD mall, Khalidya mall and Al Wahda mall. Now I am going to write about the similarities and the differences of shopping malls and souqs.

There are some similarities between shopping malls and souqs. The first similarity is that there is a lot of variety in both places such as clothes, food, shoes and perfums. Another similarity is that you can buy in both places, like if you want to buy any thing you will find it there. Yet another similarity is that they have security to help you if you need some help.

Although there are a lot of similarities, also there are several differences between shopping malls and souqs. The first difference is that most people would agree that prices are usually fixed in shopping malls but negotiable and you can get the bargain in souqs. Anoher difference is that the quality of the things in the mall is higher than the souqs. Yet another difference is that shopping malls have air conditional and its more comfortable than the souqs.

Overall, I think shopping in the malls its better than shopping in the souqs, because you can buy any thing in every season, but you cannot in the souqs because the place is open. I prefer shopping in malls because I will find what I want and in higher quality than souqs were they will give me guaruntee.
