top tips for emirates
I'm flying to the Emirates for the first time. Please give me the most necessary and first advice - on clothes (what is decent in the city, in a restaurant), on safety, on the sea (are there animals, do I need slippers)?

Decently in the city - these are closed things, i.e. clothing that covers the arms, neck and knees. There is not much difference whether you will be in a long skirt or trousers, breeches. On the beach to be in bathing suits, I do not recommend taking off its upper part.

I was carried away by clothes, but I forgot about safety. In my opinion, the UAE is the safest country to visit. Everything there is very controlled and rigid in terms of order, there are also many restrictions that are unquestioningly observed, and besides, the police are constantly running around. So there is absolutely nothing to worry about in this regard.

I also asked myself this question (s) - about the most important tips for traveling in the UAE. I even panicked at first - there are so many incomprehensible and unusual things. First of all, I undertook to go through ALL questions and answers about the UAE here, on the site - here are ready-made tips for you, a lot is clearing up in my head. I even save excerpts in Word so that I can skim through my eyes before leaving - so much information, the country is unknown to me, everything in my head does not ram at once. And along the way, I’m already compiling clarifying questions, throwing them in pieces)) on Turpravda. Have a good trip!

clothing - covered shoulders and knees, if a dress, then put on some kind of scarf. country is safe. slippers are not needed, hedgehogs were not seen, only occasional jellyfish and fish. beach - sand.

A beautiful country, relax with pleasure, behave with dignity in society, and if you want a little Russian slack, then it’s not dangerous in the room.

I always smile when I see girls in T-shirts or sundresses with scarves thrown over their shoulders - our 100%)) no one else is steaming here .. of course, a deep neckline and buttocks outward-kink, but otherwise everything is quite possible, except for the month of Ramadan, then everything is better cover your shoulders and knees

In the Dubai mall I saw a couple (Europeans) walking embracing. The lady has shorts (but not at all to the knees). Nobody paid any attention to them. Everyone walks around the city essentially as they want, but naturally without any cleavage and miniskirts. Nobody bothers with this. Unless, of course, you go to the outback or somewhere near the mosque, then the believers there attach great importance to this. Everyone else doesn't care how you look.

Thank you very much for your advice! What kind of clothes to wear to a restaurant? Is it possible to go to a restaurant and around the city in open sandals? is it worth taking a mask?

You don’t need to take a mask to the restaurant, but you can walk in sandals.

Oksana! I enjoy reading your questions and answers. but I still wonder if our ladies in clothes with local color look funny or adequate? Or is it better to be simple and sporty? about shoes in a restaurant, should they be closed or can they be in sandals?

I have already mentally selected suitable clothes in the wardrobe - but I will be all yellow)))))))))))))))))))))))))
I have perforated sandals, but closed.
Why is it funny? I think the Arabs will appreciate it. I would go myself if I had.

If you want, you can buy it there, it looks beautiful, but I think that compatriots in the hotel will not understand when they see you in such clothes.

Milwaukee, you are absolutely right!! It seems simple - but I personally somehow did not even think about it. Another's head is stuffed)))
ilika15, and I haven’t even had a cat lying around to collect my suitcase))) But I’m already flying out on the 17th, and when are you? I think that clothes should be more or less universal, so that they fit more than just one occasion. Personally, I want to pack a smaller amount into my suitcase, as I plan to bring a lot of interesting things from the Emirates.

I’m on March 10, I have a visa and tickets in my hands, my knees, as it should be for the first time, are trembling, and the suitcase sometimes hits the pareo with skirts, then it’s sporty style)) I still don’t understand about shoes on the street and in a restaurant - I need a closed one (type - shoes) or open (type sandals)?

Yes, don’t mess with your shoes, no one looks at your legs below the knees, but if it’s higher, it’s another matter, but what to look at below, go to a restaurant in what is comfortable!

the weather is great, hot during the day, sweater in the evening. Everyone swims, even one-year-old babies. getting hotter every day. the beauty is stunning, but there is little greenery and everything is very expensive. shoulders and legs are covered even in very Europeanized places, although jogging in shorts along the embankment. there are many sidewalks in the marina area of dubai and an excellent access to the beach. very clean, very strict in terms of privacy, completely safe, no one bothers. only it turned out that I am a crazy patriot of Egypt.

knee-deep is just good and excellent, many tourists walk around the city in long light trousers, slippers are wonderful, a short-sleeved T-shirt too. about
