"Sakkala" (Sheraton Road) is pure energy. It’s 5 kilometers of lights, shops, hassle, and fun. It connects the old town to the hotel promenade. If you want action, you come here.
You will be called "My Friend" 500 times in 10 minutes. It's intense. You can find fake designer bags, cotton t-shirts, spices, and oils.
Pro Tip: Visit a fixed-price shop like "Cleopatra Bazaar" first to learn the real prices before haggling on the street.
The best thing to do is pick a busy cafe, order a shisha (Watermelon-Mint is the classic), and just watch the madness go by. It’s better than TV.
Walking Sheraton Road is a skill.
