hamarain center


1997. It was the year when I first time I set foot in Dubai, and, the soil where Hamarain Center now gently stood was then an open field, I mean desert. I used to live behind it with my eldest sis. HC is connected with the now getting more grandeur JW Marriot Hotel. Upstairs are big Corporate Offices while small foodcourt and coffee shops occupies the lower level
It has fountains and cascading plants, and meant for very exclusive shopping.
It is probably the best place outside the souks to pick up local handicrafts and antiques. DSF has given life to the seemingly elegant, yet boring mall. But that was only during Summer.. The rest of the year is creepy.
