Mubarak AlKabeer St
In the heart of the city! is a phrase used by tourism and real estate agencies to market spaces and places in the city. So where is the heart of the city, and how does it work? In Kuwait, the heart of the City has always been the seaport: the starting point for trade routes leading to India one way, West Africa the other way, and all the ports in between. How did these natural and geographical variables influence trade in the city after the discovery of oil? What are the relationships between the city's various economic entities? And how does everyday economic activity effect the city? A walk along Mubarak Al-Kabeer Street will take us on a tour of trade - the lifeblood of the city's economy - to better understand its composition, its role in history, its highs and lows, and its transformations.
