What You Need to Know Before Traveling to Dubai

What You Need to Know Before Traveling to Dubai

Tethering to strong support and swinging in the air with advanced forms of technology had Tom Cruise explore the joyful heights of Dubai. Although not everyone can have the same exciting experience in the Emirate, you surely can explore various facets of elation with the culturally intensive dunes and skyscrapers that traverse the space. But before you take the flight to this amazing city of surprises, you need to know that it has various unique elements that you find amusing as a tourist.

To have a better experience with the journey, you need to keep a few points in mind. Questions about where to go, who to visit, if it is safe to travel by road, and how much to tip the waiters might be lingering around in your head while you spend your vacation in this city. Here are a few tips that can help you have a good time in Dubai.

visit Dubai

1.      October to April

If you are planning to visit Dubai in the coming years, make sure that you hit the road only in the months from October to April. You don’t need to be there when the sun is brightest. Since Dubai has always been either sunny or very sunny, it is better for you to go with the former. These 7 months in Dubai are relatively less hot, and it could also be quite chilling by late December. Blue skies and beach weather can be a sight that you rarely come across in Dubai. If you want all the best aspects of the city to entertain you, take the flight only after the scorching heats have subsided.

2.      Book Flights Six Months Ahead

Departure dates have to be checked at least six months prior to the October vacation plan. All international airlines usually sell their cheapest tickets around six months before the flight. It is not necessary to book the tickets six months ahead of your planned vacation, but at least keep checking for the rates of multiple airlines so that you can compare for the best one. Make sure not to procrastinate the booking of tickets to just a few weeks before the departure date.

3.      Ramadan May Not Be the Right Month

Muslims have their holy month set apart for reverence and divinity that they prefer to stay away from all forms of luxury. It would be best to plan your trip for a month that doesn’t clash with their traditions. In case you are traveling during Ramadan, try and respect their culture, meaning you shouldn’t eat, drink, or smoke in public from dusk till dawn.

4.      Modest Dressing is Recommended

Wardrobe can be confusing to handle, especially when you have enjoyed most of your life in comfort. When traveling to Dubai, try not to wear any skimpy clothes. Women’s attire is considered seriously in the country; so, don’t go for too short or revealing clothes. Men should also stick to modest clothing, meaning you shouldn’t unbutton your shirt completely or walk around without one to beat the heat.

Know About Travel Wilderness

Know About Travel Wilderness

Wilderness is a natural phenomenon on Earth which indicates to vast areas of land being significantly under developed by mankind. It can be a large forest or mountains with indigenous shrubs and plants or rocky hills in higher altitudes untouched and natural as it is. They are also called wild lands. Wilderness can be divided into Flora and Fauna. Fauna are the animals and mammals, both domestic and wild while Flora are the plants of a particular region. Recent mappings suggest that over one quarter of Earths terrestrial surface is covered in wilderness and only about 13.2% is left in marine wilderness. But even those are being increasingly encroached upon by humans for re-constructional activities.

History

For most of mankind’s early history, life has always surrounded in and around wilderness. From water, food, houses and huts, clothes and weapons everything was created and obtained from the wild. Since after that, tribes and communities were formed. Slowly and steadily, the mere thought of using the wild for more than what it simply gave came into the picture. As people explored newer regions and areas of the nature, unknown and interesting things came into hand. But with this increasing curiosity and need for more, nature’s balance got disrupted. Ashoka, The great Mauryan emperor was the first to impose laws to protect flora and fauna. Many famous artists and poets like J.M.W Turner, William Wordsworth and John Constable have tried to capture the beauty of nature’s enigma and it’s never ending wilderness.

Wilderness Societies

Wilderness Societies

By the early 19th century, the entire ideology of preserving nature and its wilderness surged. In Germany, “scientific conservation” that meant the efficient utilization of natural resources through the application of science and technology was implemented. By the mid 19th , the Conservation movement started. Extreme parts of the world joined this movement to safeguard the wild.  In 1876, the first known World Nature Reserve was established in Fontainebleau State forest covering 1097 hectares. Wildlife preserves were established continuously throughout the late 1940s in order to stealthily indulge in big game hunting of wildlife. Nevertheless, by 1961 the World Wildlife Fund (WWF) was founded which became one among the largest conservation organisations in the world. But again as the population increased, consumption increased. Sustainable development was introduced in the early 20th century to preserve and conserve Nature in all its forms without exploiting all non renewable and renewable resources. This was done in order to ensure a stable environment for our future generations. Consequently several other organisations and wilderness laws were passed to ensure Nature conservation.

National parks and wildlife centres were developed. Endangered species (both flora and fauna) were protected from further getting extinct.

International organizations

  • The World Conservation Union (IUCN) classifies wilderness at 2 levels: la(Strict Nature Preserves) and lb(wilderness areas).
  • 48 countries have wilderness areas established.
  • The awareness to protect our nature has spread to the hearts of small kids as well as old people.

Arkansas provides a great natural destination during the autumn season when the temperatures go down, and the leaves in the forest start changing. When you know that it is the hiking season, pack your bags and get ready to explore the beautiful destinations around Arkansas. While you are at it, you must also know what you will need during your hike.

The autumn season can be colder, so you also need some clothes to keep your body warm. As the temperature rises during the day, you can get back to wearing quick-dry shirts. But if you carry heavy coats during the hike, you will only make it difficult for yourself by adding more weight.

If your idea is to wear flip flops during the hikes, you must consult an expert right away about your choices. Slippers can be a real trip-hazard that can cause injuries and even blisters easily.

Do not hike alone

Hiking only gets better if you have a companion or family member with you. Some people prefer to hike along, but it also brings many risks of getting lost or feeling helpless in stressful situations. A hiking partner can help you make decisions when you feel stuck. Sharing your hiking adventures with others will also help you create better memories that you can talk about later.

Ask a few experienced hikers what they mean by trekking and what the best treks in the world are. You will get a different answer from each one of them. Some may consider a trek iconic because of its scenery, while others may consider a trek great for the perseverance and effort it needs.

Even though we cannot pinpoint what makes a trek epic, we can say that all the top treks will create a sense of mission that will transform the simple act of sightseeing into a life-changing expedition. A great trek is about the journey and the things we learn along the way.

The best treks in the world will offer you an incredible experience, and here is a list of top treks that will give you a life-changing experience.

Everest base camp

Everest base camp, Nepal

If you want to experience the thrill and satisfaction of achieving a great mission, the two weeks trek to the Everest base camp would be the best option. You will have to climb 18,193 feet to reach the highest point and trace the winding river valleys and the terrifying Khumbu glacier. In this mighty mission, you will come across various monasteries, breathtaking sceneries, the calm and balanced Sherpa villages.

Hikers will have to climb 7,972 feet along the sacred valleys, travel down and around the mountains, and cross three passes to reach their destination. Trekking is limited to 200 people to protect Peru’s lost city. As a result, you will be able to have a tranquil experience that you can treasure for a lifetime.

So, be ready with a strong pair of lungs, a strong pair of legs, the willpower to conquer unexpected and unwelcome situations, and perseverance. Even though you will have to put in a lot of effort, trekking will be rewarding and will give you memories that will make you proud and happy.
