The one thing I liked was going over the creek for a few dirhams and strolling through the historical souk.
That's literally the only 'old' bit, but I was still constantly pestered by people trying to get me to come with them to look at handbags and sunglasses, and I do mean constantly, to the point where I just left because I couldn't be arsed anymore.
Yeah, but that is typical of a lot of shops in the Middle East.
