What cultural characteristics are inherent in Dubai?

Dubai is a unique cocktail of tradition and modernity. Despite the rapid growth and globalization, the city retains deep roots in Islamic culture. The muezzin’s call to prayer five times a day fills the streets with melodious sounds. Hospitality here is not just a word, but a way of life: you will always be greeted with a smile and offered a cup of fragrant Arabic coffee with dates. It is customary to dress modestly, especially in places where there are many locals. At the same time, Dubai is open to different cultures and religions, and people from more than 200 nationalities live here side by side.
