Qaryat Al Beri Resort Development Company LLC is a joint venture between Al Jaber Group and the Tourism Development and Investment Company (TDIC).

'The Souk' is a unique and the first of its kind in Abu Dhabi. It was built to showcase Arabian architecture and reflect traditional Arab hospitality and generosity.

The opening ceremony, which took place on the 28th of October 2008 included a ribbon cutting and a tour of the premises by HE Sheikh Sultan Bin Tahnoon (Chairman of ADTA) was attended by HE Obaid Khaleefa Al Jaber, Chairman of Qaryat Al Beri Resort Development Company LLC.


The Souk is now officially open and we would like to invite everyone to come and visit. Aimed to be the meeting place of choice for both leisure and business, the Souk is a popular feature for retail and F&B (Food and Beverage) brands from the region and those from around the world.

Located between the Maqtaa and Musaffah bridges in Abu Dhabi, the Souk is the latest among a string of projects being developed in the Qaryat Al Beri area, adjacent to the Shangri-La Abu Dhabi. Qaryat Al Beri is one of the most distinguished waterfront projects in Abu Dhabi.

Built on two levels, the Souk is an interesting fusion of Arabian architecture with a Venetian theme. Water canals meander through the Souk and nearby properties with abras ferrying hotel guests from the Shangri-La to various locations. Several restaurants and coffee shops have alfresco dining terraces that overlook the waters and accord a view of the picturesque landscape. Well-known restaurants will also serve international cuisine including Italian, Japanese, Arabic, and Indian varieties.
Spread over a total floor area of 6,222 square meters comprising retail and F&B outlets, the Souk promises to be the ultimate destination not only for tourists but also for Abu Dhabi residents.
