Traditions based on East Culture

The 700-thousands of Emirate's inhabitants are religious, they are committed to the islam, chiefly to the sunnita, which is a part within the islam. Although, dubais are well knowing the west-culture and habits, we have to consider and envisige: we are on district of musulmans. Beside the official arabian language, the english is well-speeked, due to the numerous tourists, and employees, workers they arrived from another foreign country.

The local, and beduin racy courses are mixing with the range of national foods, which are kindly consumed by the local-living people.

There are some etic-rules, we have to consider them. The people of dubai doesn't like when they are photographed without any preliminary questions, and another rule refers to men came from abroad, they could make a handshake with women in only one case, if the women are the initiator. The consumption of alcohol is allowed, merely during the ramadan, as the matter fact during the st. mounth we could meet with restrictions, only at daytime.

Good to know, in this region the weekend takes place on Thursday and Friday.
