5 Things You Must Avoid In Dubai As A Tourist


Even though Dubai is the city of grandeur, it is fairly conservative in its laws. Many tourists have been arrested for doing pretty normal things that are considered criminal offenses in Dubai. This makes it all the more important for you to go through the following 5 points before booking your Dubai Holiday Package to save yourself from undesired embarrassment.

PDA

Public display of affection in the form of kissing and holding hands is strictly prohibited in Dubai. It is considered to be a part of “inappropriate behavior” as laid down in the guidelines published by the Dubai government. A couple has previously been jailed for a month after they were found kissing in a restaurant. If you don’t want to spoil your Dubai Tour Package, make sure you don’t indulge in any such activity.


Bare Body

Make sure you cover at least 70% of your body before heading out to explore the lavish land, especially arms and legs. Frequent announcements are also made in malls as a reminder to not violate the dress code. If you don’t want to land yourself in trouble, don’t let the thoughts about dressing fancily occur to you. Also, take care with swimsuits for they are only allowed at beaches and hotel pools.


Eating In Public

During the month of Ramadan, eating or drinking publically is a serious crime. Even if you are a non-Muslim, you’ll have to abide by this rule. A lot of foreigners have been arrested for violating this. Be a smart tourist and don’t let this happen to you! 


Disrespect

Around two years back, there was a man who was arrested for as meager an act as bumping into a person. Yes! Even though he wasn’t really at fault, the person at the receiving end got offended and filed a case. If a move that occurred purely out of misconception can cause such damage, imagine what will happen if you end up doing something like this intentionally! Don’t, therefore, involve yourself in any kind of fights.


Revealing Your True Identity

Dubai is an intolerable country where homosexual sex is still illegal. Sharing if you are a gay or a lesbian can make you pay severe penalties. Although we all wish for a world where we can be ourselves without any inhibitions, Dubai is a total spoiler in this case which considers even cross-dressing as a misdeed.


Ask me and I’d say that the tallest building and the largest water parks in a country can never make it grand; it is the heart of the country that reflects in its rules and regulations that does! And Dubai has been failing its tourists in this area year after year.

Because we understand how a shopaholic soul functions, we have listed 5 economic shopping locations for you to consider. MBK Mall One of the cheapest malls in Thailand, MBK stands for Mah Boon Krong.

One thing that you need to take care of is not to buy things at first sight. Shops near the entrance quote higher prices and must be avoided. You’ll find the same products at a much cheaper price if you make the efforts to roam around the mall. Chatuchak Market This weekend market is the most visited in Thailand.
