The Gold Suiks ( Old Markets )

The gold Suiks are a sight in themselves to see, a disgusting display of wealth and there is just 1000's of little stores all brightly illuminated and all again buying for your tourist $.
With promises of a good price better than everyone else and that you and him are "just destine to meet". Smooth, charming none of the ugly sales people here ... and great with a sales pitch. The jewellery places are packed with Arabic tourist hugely cashed up and in some of the shops several deep looking for a bargain.

It not just the cheep stuff either some of the pieces that looked like costume jewellery were in the 10's to 100's of thousands of $ and were so OTT with bright yellow gold and looking like a chest plate and supporting huge jewels and looked like something that Lady Gargar would wear to her next royal dinner with Charles or a more casual night at a Oil Barron function in a Beddawin Tent.

Huge and showy with a bit of glamour but a lot more cringe....
