The customs of the United Arab Emirates

The customs and habits of the UAE are:

1. According to the dietary range and habits of Muslims stipulated in the Koran, the blood of pigs, horses, mules, donkeys, dogs, snakes, turkeys, dead meat, floating fish and all animals shall be fasted.

There are no tigers, wolves, lions, leopards, bears, elephants, monkeys, eagles, harriers and other birds and animals; No opium, no alcohol, etc. Generally, Arab families eat on the floor and grab food with their right hands.

2. UAE people like brown and dark blue, but it is forbidden to use pink, yellow and purple. They like antelope. It is considered taboo to use pigs, crosses and hexagons as patterns. On the big screen of the UAE stock market, the rising stocks are represented by green, and the falling stocks are represented by red.

After work, local businessmen like to sit in coffee shops. In Dubai, there are some nightclubs in the area west of Dubai Trench, and there are also light bars in major hotels for young people to chat with friends at night.

Acquaintances or business dinners are always held in each other's homes, which is different from our domestic situation of talking about business on the restaurant wine table. Only men are often invited to the homes of UAE businessmen.

Although the United Arab Emirates is an Islamic country and believes in Islam, it is open to the outside world in all directions, with relatively free policies, and there are not many restrictions on foreigners in terms of food, clothing, housing and transportation. Pork can be bought in designated areas of some supermarkets.

During Ramadan, drinking, smoking and eating are not allowed in public places and streets after sunrise and before sunset, and most local restaurants and beverage shops are closed during this period.
