What does Dubai mean by black robe and white robe?

Black and white robes in Dubai are traditional local costumes.

Dubai people are all Arabs, and Arabs have been wearing white robes and black robes since ancient times. Men in Dubai wear spotless white robes, while women wear long black robes to cover their faces. This is the traditional dress of Dubai people, which is called "Candura" in the local language, that is, the black and white one, and it has become the most iconic dress worn by Dubai people all year round.

The clothes in Dubai are not graded, but the cleanliness of the white robes can show their quality of life. For example, farmers from poor families need to do some farm work every day, so it is difficult to keep their white robes clean. Some Arabs even prepare several sets of white robes in their cars when they go out. If the white robe has a little stain, or a little wrinkle, it will be put on a second set immediately.

Matters needing attention in going to Dubai

1, Ramadan

During the annual Ramadan, drinking, smoking and eating are not allowed in public places and streets after sunrise and before sunset, and restaurants and beverage shops are closed at this time. Ramadan lasts 1 month. Although I work for half a day in the morning during Ramadan, I can't actually do anything. Therefore, when traveling, doing business or holding exhibitions in the United Arab Emirates, we should pay attention to avoiding the local Ramadan as much as possible.

Step 2 drink

Drinking is not allowed in other places or streets except in apartments and star-rated hotels.
