Dubai – City of Gold
Or commonly referred as Gold Souk is located in the heart of Dubai’s commercial district in Deira. This place is lined up with hundreds of jewellery stores. Here you can find Guinness Book of World Record’s largest gold ring worth 3M$. That’s one hell of ring we are talking about and they are too big to fit your pinky finger! and it weights 64 kilograms ( I need to hit the gym right now to lift that piece of cake).

World’s Largest Ring
If you are a lover of Gold or if you are a budget traveler, this is a must visit place and my advise to men, its better you hold the hand of your partner as the magnetic force just pulls them into the stores 🙂 (we are talking about 100’s of Jewellery stores).
The place is crowded with people who try to sell you fake designer brands that you might have never heard, just politely say ‘NO’ if you are not interested.

My that’s some gold!
That’s a lot of Gold we are talking about!! 🙂
My husband brought me here during our honeymoon in UAE. Gold everywhere! 😉
I am sure you guys had fun exploring Dubai! Sounds like a lot of shopping 😉
Yes, we spent our New Year’s countdown at Jumeirah. It was great. Fantastic fireworks 🙂
I like jewlery and I resisted the Vêndome Square in Paris… would be nice to visit Dubai. Interesting article (amazing gold ring!). 🙂
Dubai is a must if you love jewellery! The gold is pure but the prices are fixed however you can negotiate for the making charges/ design. 100+ stores, 🙂
Now there is a practical piece of jewellery? Yikes to 64kg!
you visit the place, its right in front of you! Since its Dubai no one shall dare to lift it 🙂 (the rules are strict there!)
Gosh, now, 64 kilo is heavy enough, I guess any thief would think twice to steal such ring..it’s just not a ring!
For sure! I would image the very second he touches the ring the alarm system would have given him a attack 🙂
If they sell tickets they will make their money back… but the overhead would bankrupt them. 😮
the funny part was, all the customers at this Gold store hardly purchased any gold, instead everyone rounded this ring 🙂
Wow, that’s a lot of gold for a ring!
I know! you turn anywhere here, all you find is Gold and Kebab 🙂
That sounds good to me haha
Those were the exact words I told when I was at Duabi 🙂 lol
