Wafi City is a shopping and leisure complex on Oud Metha Road in Dubai, known for Wafi Mall’s Egyptian-inspired design. Look up at the decorated ceilings and take time to notice the carved details and stained glass as you walk through. The mall has shops, cafés and restaurants, along with a supermarket, pharmacy, cinema and food court. Compared with Dubai’s larger, busier malls, it offers a quieter setting for browsing or meeting friends. AYA Universe, an immersive light and art experience, is also inside the mall.

Shopping, food and other stops
Wafi Mall combines shops with cafés and restaurants, a food court and everyday services, including a supermarket and pharmacy. The complex also has VOX Cinema. For an art-focused visit, AYA Universe is inside the mall and centres on immersive light installations.
