Dragon Mart is a collection of shops with Chinese goods- toys, bags, building materials, clothes, soft furnishings etc
The complex is housed under like roofs with typical red Chinese lanterns hanging down. There are so many shops with similar goods in the same area.
There are kioskd in the centre of each area selling popcorn or coffee or waffles. There are not enough seats though and on a Friday the mart is packed with people and workers pushing trolleys. It is atmospheric.

What to buy: In the mart, we were looking for bed sheets, There were beautiful soft cotton sheets in self colours [yellow, beige, rose blue, white.Also beautiful duvets, but we were not interested in them. Some of the sheets were delicately embroidered.

What to pay: Reasonable prices, but bargaining was not successful, They kept saying 'final price' without reducing at all.
We paid 50 dhs for a Queen sized flat sheet and 30 for a fitted sheet.

Address: on the way to Academic City, in International City
Directions: Warsan Area on the Hatta-Oman Rd (partly Emirates Rd )
Theme: Home Furnishing

Review Helpfulness: 2.5 out of 5 stars
