Recent weather and consumption in Syria

1. Syria has a Mediterranean climate, with rainy winters and dry summers. Spring and autumn are two short transitional seasons. There is much rain in coastal areas in winter, rainy and snowy in mountainous areas in winter, scarce rain in desert areas and dry and hot in summer. Syria has a mild climate, with an average temperature of 32℃ in summer, 10℃ in winter and 22℃ in spring and autumn. The average temperature in Damascus is about17 C, but it is higher in July and August. 2. When visiting Syrian families or visiting institutions or enterprises, the host usually entertains the guests with bitter coffee first. Coffee is packed in special pots and small cups, and the coffee pourer only takes four or five cups in his hand. If there are many guests, the person in front will use it after using it, and will not wash it. The amount of coffee poured each time is not much, only about one-third of the cup. If the guest doesn't drink after drinking, shake the cup from side to side, otherwise the host will add more coffee to the cup until the guest shakes the cup. However, with the passage of time, this habit has become less strict. If you don't want to drink, just wave. Syrians have the custom of meeting, shaking hands, hugging and kissing their faces. Colleagues and friends usually greet each other by shaking hands. When friends and relatives meet again after a long separation or go away from home, they will hug warmly and kiss their cheeks three times (only between the same sex, men are left, right and left; Women have right, left and right. If you are a close relative, you will smack your mouth when you kiss your cheek. For foreign guests, when they meet for the first time, they usually shake hands to welcome them. If we meet for the second time, we will warmly hug and kiss our faces, usually twice, first left and then right, and then three times (left, right and left) if the two have a deep friendship. Men and women greet each other by shaking hands. 3. Syria is one of the few countries with low prices in the world, and its social welfare is relatively perfect. Farmers only need to pay a small amount of utilities and taxes. Because Syria considers itself a socialist country, it increases the financial burden of the government. 4. Syrian specialties: rose essential oil and olive oil, but olive oil is not easy to take out of the country. The local area is rich in fruits, dried fruits and vegetables, such as wheat, barley, cotton, grapes, olives, figs, pears and plums. Shuangwaiwai
