There is no specific month for fasting as the Holy month starts 10 days earlier each year according to the Gregorian calendar due to which it revolves throughout the year. The whole Dubai goes into Hibernation during the 30 days of Ramadan and you can clearly observe a great cut down in the ratio of fun activities. Even if you are not Muslim and not fasting, you cannot eat, drink, or smoke in front of the public during the day hours. Moreover, most of the restaurants and cafes remain closed during the fasting hours. However, the Muslims break their fast with sunset and this city comes to life again. Restaurants and cafes reopen and food along with alcohol are reserved in a normal manner. Many restaurants and hotels of Dubai offer special Ramadan tents serving for their customers. Anyhow, the visitors are strictly expected to behave their self during Ramadan as it is month for revelry. The crux of the restrictions during Ramadan is that, you really could not find it easy to calm down at length which is the main purpose of your visit to Dubai. In short, it is better to avoid Dubai’s tour during Ramadan but you can make your visit a memorable one by indulging into the activities carried out at evenings. Furthermore, it is again a fine visiting time for the ones with limited budget as majority of hotels and flight rates tend to fall during this month.
