Wear long-sleeved clothes and hats outdoors, apply sunscreen on exposed parts and drink plenty of water.

2. Currency: The local currency is dirham, and the US dollar can also be used directly. Renminbi can't be used directly, but it can be easily converted into dirhams and dollars at airports and shopping malls. 1 RMB ≈0. 15 USD, 1 USD ≈3.7 dirhams, 1 dirhams ≈/.8724 RMB.

3, photography: photography in public places must be cautious. Shooting Arab women in public places is disrespectful and must be avoided at all times. You also need permission before taking pictures of men. In addition, filming government agencies and military facilities is also not allowed.

4. Custom: Every Muslim must worship five times a day. Muslim worship is a very serious matter. No one else is allowed to talk to them, let alone joke. During the local annual Ramadan, drinking, smoking and eating are not allowed in public places and streets from sunrise to sunset. Most local tourists and drink shops are closed at this time. During Ramadan, women should try to wear long-sleeved clothes and trousers, so as not to be too exposed. Drinking is not allowed in other places or streets except in apartments or hotels with houses.

5. Greeting: When meeting an Arab man in the Gulf, it is acceptable to stand up and shake hands, but in most cases, shaking hands between a man and a Muslim woman is considered unacceptable (and vice versa). Personal behavior that is considered rude and unacceptable in western society is generally not recognized in the Middle East. At any time, there should be no public intimacy between men and women in public, otherwise it will be considered rude and may be arrested. In addition, drunk driving and misconduct after drinking too much will also be arrested.
