Sharq Market is situated within easy reach of Kuwait City and Salmiya and covers an area of 55,567 m2. Its vibrant atmosphere lasts throughout the day and well into the night, and has a justifiable reputation as one of Kuwait’s liveliest social venues. With numerous cafes, restaurants and home to some of the world’s finest brands, it’s the perfect place to meet friends , indulge in a spot of retail therapy, stroll along promenades and covered esplanades or simply do some people-watching.

On the Ground Floor and Second Floor there is a wide variety of retail outlets, ranging from well-known high-street shops to chic boutiques and designer stores. There are also numerous cafes and restaurants that offer a fantastic selection of food and drink for all the family to enjoy. So if you’ve finished shopping or just a fancy rest, why not kick-back with a delicious meal and feast your eyes on panoramic views over the Marina and Central Plaza?

There are only 21 water clocks in the world today and Sharq Market is extremely proud to be home to one of them. This eye-catching timepiece, constructed by Professor Bernard Gitton, is located in the Central hall (Plaza), and is the only one of its kind in the Gulf. It’s a must-see for anyone coming to Sharq Market. The Ancient Greeks called this service “Clepsydra” which literally means “water thief”, and it is one of the oldest ways to measure time. Standing at 5.5m high, its beautiful simplicity contrasts with the hustle and bustle of today’s world. So, stand for a moment and let its gorgeous tranquility relax you.
