The three most interesting things you would bring from the UAE
Maybe five. Which? :) This is a blitz survey (to fill your suitcase with only the most important and cool ones). Must have sweets! Already added to the list. But what? I'm lost :) Thank you.

1. spices; 2. Turks for coffee (a wide variety of copper coffee pots); 3. gold (I love it and take it from everywhere); 4. sherbet, halvah, nougat, Turkish delight, dates (there is even date jam); 5. many people buy daggers (they are crooked, I forgot their name).
Well, of course, a bottle of sand (without this, I do not return from the trip).

Just don't laugh, I also thought about the dagger! Although this, it would seem, is a truly male toy.

Well, why is it male? I was also interested in holding her. And in general a very beautiful thing.

2. Shells. I have 3 basins (complete), or rather, a bunch of all sorts of compositions for the interior. It is not forbidden to export;
3. Sand from the desert;
4. Camel souvenir (I have a soft toy);
5. Souvenir "7 sands";
6. Sweets - baklava. There are "Sweet" special stores, there are "Spinneys" supermarket chains;
7. Bahor (incense - one of the symbols of the UAE);
8. Australian mangoes - large, juicy, sold in chain supermarkets, I pounce on them first thing upon arrival;
9. A figurine of Ganesha from an Indian shop;
10. Spices - sold in huge quantities both in stores and in the markets;
11. Arugula, fresh mint 2 kg for 40 of our rubles, in the supermarkets Carifar and Spines!!!
12. I don’t even write about any souvenir trifles: magnets, key rings, plates, figurines, decide on the spot.
Well, this is my must have.

Still forgot. Indian pashmina, which I bought 5 years ago, still saves from the cold, and it’s a miracle how good it is. I recommend Indian shops in the markets, I personally have a knack for these things. An elephant beautifully embroidered with silk stands too.

They don't ban. I, I repeat, the whole apartment in them. I was lucky in Sharjah after the waves threw out all sizes, shapes, sizes. This is unlikely to happen in Dubai. But there are simple ones.

Take more money. And then decide, if the toad crushes, just don't spend it. I'm dropping everything.

This instinct is not only lost in you. No matter how much you take, let it all down (I know it myself).

So you have to take it. They are crooked and short there. And the curvature is explained by the fact that it was worn on a belt, and they sat in Arabic, so you had to bend it, just take a check from a gift shop, otherwise it happens, we get some kind of customs at our customs -Never a zealous employee, so as not to be regarded as a melee weapon. It seems to me, it is better to play it safe.

And what, with a check "from the gift shop" does the dagger turn into a simple piece of iron? Do not take this piece of iron in hand luggage and there will be no problems.
Of all the above wishes, I would prefer 7 sands / as a symbol of 7 emirates / and a ring-chain-pendant / just advantageous in price and choice /, as a keepsake.
Everything else is imported, not typical for this country / well, what does elephants have to do with it ??? /
Dates. ask and buy IRANIAN. you will not regret!

But after all, you will buy this very item (dagger) as a souvenir and you will have a check from the gift shop. Only in hand luggage, I think it's not necessary. Dagger in suitcase, check in hand. I think everything will work out.

And dalla is one of the symbols of the Emirates. From imitations to real ones. Symbols: dalla, a bowl for smoking bonnet, rose water, a cap to cover food from sand.

I meant zealous not when exporting, but when importing. Hand or luggage, you will come across zealous, and questions will begin. to those who met, people in uniform began to question: what are these shells, corals? Yes. How many pieces and what sizes? True, she told everything honestly that it was not for sale, she let go in peace. Everything is subjective and depends on a specific person. Take a check, it's not difficult.

By the way, it makes sense. BUT it’s still better if they don’t just prominus, but correct and prompt.
