I and my friends were planning to travel to Dubai during Ramadan. So many businesses, stores, restaurants, and attractions will be closed or open during shorten hours to notice the Holy time with family and to pray and enjoy with this festival, so we may have to do a extra planning in advance. We put composed a detailed guide of everything which we need to know about visiting Dubai during the Holy month of Ramadan. Most of the tourist attractions are open during the day and everyone will not have to wait in long queues. I heard that it’s easier to get tickets for landmarks like Burj Khalifa, the world’s tallest building, and fun places like Wild Wadi Waterpark. Very happy to check your article details about tourism of Dubai. know before planning to travel Dubai.
Ramadan should not be chosen if you are coming on a trip. This is a month where throughout the month respect is provided by everyone. Before Aftaar, you cannot find restaurants and hotels. There are many other things which are closed in this month to provide respect to Ramadan, like shopping, travelling etc, before Aftaar. We will recommend coming to Dubai, not during Ramadan.
