A sophisticated Middle Eastern country with a rich history

When there's enough money, even a city in the desert can showcase and unearth the various civilizations of its ancestors. With its oil exports and decades of development, the UAE has become truly sophisticated! Entry Process ▫️Visa-free, only a passport is required. (Check the expiration date and blank pages) ▫️After disembarking, follow the blue "Arrival" signs. ▫️Notes on iris scanning upon entry: - It's best not to wear colored contact lenses. - If the gate scan is unsuccessful, return to the border control office (office 1). There are more precise scanners at the counters there (I witnessed passengers with eye conditions being able to pass). Geographic Location and Climate The UAE, or United Arab Emirates, with its capital Abu Dhabi, is located in the eastern part of the Arabian Peninsula. It borders Saudi Arabia to the southwest, Oman to the northeast, and faces Iran across the Persian Gulf to the north. The UAE has a tropical desert climate with two distinct seasons: a hot season from May to October and a cool season from November to April. Summers are hot and dry, with temperatures ranging from 40–48°C. Winters are comfortable, with temperatures between 8–20°C, and occasional rainfall.
