Tips In Dubai, government agencies usually start work at 7 or 8 in the morning and get off work at 2 noon. Do not open the door in the afternoon. So everything must be finished in the morning. Generally, companies go to work at 9 am and get off work at 2 noon, then go to work at 4 pm and get off work at 8 pm. Unlike China, the rest day is Friday.

On August 8, 2008, my dream country, Dubai, United Arab Emirates, always impressed me with mystery, luxury, romance and myth. It has many of the best in the world, creating one impossible myth after another. There are also some rumors on the Internet that Dubai is full of gold and luxury cars. What is the real situation? I want to explore it with my eyes. This trip transits in Hong Kong, then flies to Dubai, and arrives at Dubai International Airport at 6: 30am on August 9th, 2008, UAE time. Near the airport, I saw an endless desert and the whole city was shrouded in sand and fog. After landing, take the airport and transfer to the subway to the entry and exit hall. When entering the country, you must scan your iris. Iris scanning is a biometric technology, which is relatively rare in China at present. Similar to recording the fingerprints of immigrants. Emigrants in the United Arab Emirates account for three quarters of the total population. Iris scanning prevents some foreigners from re-entering the country in multiple identities after breaking the law or having bad records. Because iris scanning, like fingerprints, is unique, more advanced than fingerprints, and easier to record and archive. 1 Our first stop today is Sharjah. Sharjah, Dubai and Abu Dhabi are also called the three major cities in the United Arab Emirates (the locals call them the three major cities). On the first day from Dubai to Sharjah, we took a water taxi first. The careful guide also showed us a special visit to Dubai, where the bus station was closed. I have to say that the bus station is indeed much more comfortable and humanized than our country, with seats, air conditioning, city maps and WiFi. In August, it's really hot in UAE. Since we first came here, no one got off the bus, but took a bus tour of Sharjah. Careful friends should have discovered by now that luxury cars are not everywhere in the UAE, as it is said. In fact, most of the cities are ordinary cars, which is not much different from our country. But what surprises me is the architecture here. From Dubai to Sharjah, all the buildings in the two cities have different styles and unique shapes. T find any two buildings with the same appearance. At first, I kept taking pictures with my mobile phone, but later I found that it was completely photographed. After returning to Dubai from Sharjah, we visited Dubai Museum, which is much smaller than some famous museums in China. It mainly shows some local customs and figure sculptures. If friends travel freely and time is tight, it is not recommended to go. After visiting the museum, the guide took us to Lavita latex shop in the afternoon. Latex is unique to the southeast in my impression, but I didn't expect it to appear among local tyrants. Here, I learned that latex products are also sold in Dubai, because they are widely loved by Arab local tyrants. After a trip, I felt that the quality of Southeast Asia was much better than when I joined the group, and the price was cheaper than what I bought in Thailand. Many members of the same group bought ~, which is worthy of being the United Arab Emirates and has everything. Then, we took the world-famous unmanned light rail to visit Palm Jumeirah, the eighth wonder in the world, and Atlantis Hotel, a six-star hotel on Palm Jumeirah, the largest artificial island in the world, with a cost of 654.38+04 billion US dollars, which is a business card of Dubai and one of the three artificial island projects in Dubai. The other two are Palm Jebel Ali and Palm Della. The itinerary does not include a visit to the sailing hotel, but the sailing hotel can only be entered if there is food and accommodation. So after returning to the hotel in the afternoon, I scoured 1200 copies of Chi Pan buffet from the hive (the cafeteria has a good environment, both indoor and outdoor seats, and I can enjoy the sea view with the sea breeze, but I really can't get used to it. I almost cried and vomited. I just ate some fruit. Don't take any photos without it. ) After I booked dinner, I took a taxi with my baby to the sailing hotel and visited the sailing boat and the yearning eye of Arabia.
