If you are tired of the gloss and glitter, visit the historic district of Al Fahidi, where narrow streets and traditional coral stone houses take you back in time.

During this time, many restaurants and cafes are closed during the day but open in the evening for Iftar, the breaking of the fast after sunset. I participated in Iftar and was touched by the hospitality and spirituality of this event. Other holidays include Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, which are accompanied by family gatherings and charitable activities.

Go to question pageDesert safari is one of those adventures that you cannot miss in Dubai. I chose the evening safari to see the sunset over the dunes. In a powerful SUV, we raced over the sandy hills, experiencing the thrill of steep descents and ascents. The experienced driver skillfully maneuvered, and I couldn't help but let out excited exclamations. After the exhilarating ride, we stopped at a Bedouin camp. Here, you could try sandboarding, ride a camel, or get a henna tattoo. Dinner under the stars with local cuisine, belly dancing, and traditional music created an unforgettable atmosphere. The desert at night is a special place where silence and the starry sky make you ponder the eternal.
