Where do we find traditional art and craft items of Saudi Arabia at a good price in Jeddah? Are there any souqs?? I am looking for souvenirs.

I don't recall prices being low but I would suggest checking

It's on one of the floors (Not the ground floor, if remember correctly I think it was the floor above Emax)
Thing is, it's been over a year since I went there and business didn't seem too lively... hopefully, it's still there.

340

Usually they sell it to foreigners especially Westerners a little bit higher.

I've observed that when I bought the same item a couple bought ahead of us (SR100 lesser) but it's from a souvenir shop in Riyadh past the bridge near Al Batha.

I think you should consider ( Bab Makkah Souk, old Jeddah) city center

Hi, I’m an Artist living near Jeddah and I create Culturally fluid artworks inspired by Saudi Arabia. I take all my color palettes from the environment from the Red Sea to the Desert, and even native animals like the Sand Gazelle.聽

I do free shipping for Saudi too.
