Dukkan Al-Taybeen Brings Folk Shopping Heritage to Life at Dumat Al-Jandal Dates Festival

The Dukkan Al-Taybeen (Food Market) corner at the Dumat Al-Jandal Dates Festival offers visitors a nostalgic glimpse into traditional shopping culture through a miniature setting that recreates the look of old neighborhood shops and the everyday goods once commonly used.

This corner highlights the evolution of shopping practices over the years and seeks to strengthen the connection between younger generations and their social heritage by showcasing items deeply rooted in the community’s collective memory, reflecting various stages of daily life.
The display includes a curated selection of vintage tools and products, such as an old instant camera, traditional food containers, and a range of goods that were widely traded in past decades. Together, these elements recreate scenes that capture the simplicity and fine details of life in earlier times.
As part of the festival’s accompanying activities, this corner supports the integration of heritage with agricultural and economic programs, enriching the overall festival experience with cultural content that reflects the region’s identity and social history.
