3. INTRODUCCIÓN.
Before you begin this presentation, I wanted
put some data (it would be a kind of
introduction to this country).
Location.
It is located southeast of the Arabian
Peninsula, in the Persian Gulf
(Middle East) and is composed of
seven emirates:
AbuDhabi, Dubai, Ajman, Fujairah, Ras
Alkhaimah, Sharjah and Umm al
Qaiwain.
History.
The seven treaties that make up the
country coast to R.Unido granted,
territorial defense and external
relations management.
On 12/02/1971, six of them (all but
Alkhaima) became independent and
joined to form the EE.AA.UU.

4. ARCHITECTURE
The architecture of the UAE is mostly
inspired by Islamic architecture. The
E.A.U. reflect the traditional lifestyles and
customs of the people. Building materials
are very simple, but perfect adaptations
have been made to the demands of
lifestyle and current climate.

5. THE DRESS
While the Islamic dress code is not compulsory, unlike in neighboring
Saudi Arabia, many of the older men and young Emiratis prefer the
​
dishdash thawb or a white tunic reaching to the ankles, made from
wool or cotton, while very few women wear the black abaya on over
their other garments, it covers them most of cuerpo.13Estas robes
are particularly suitable for hot, dry climate of the UAE Western-style
clothing is also very popular, especially among young people .

6. ITS CUISINE
The modern diet of E.A.U. is cosmopolitan, ie features
dishes from around the world. Many people confuse
Levantine cuisine preparations as originating in the
United Arab Emirates, but the shawarma, the hummous,
tabbouleh and mixed grill, are recent additions and do
not do justice to "soul food" which is the menu Emirati
diet.

7. LITERATURE AND POETRY
The main themes in Emirati poetry include
satire, chivalry, self-praise, patriotism,
religion, family and love, these can range
from descriptive to narrative.

9. [* ACCOMMODATIONS *]
The accommodations are fabulous ... not least because as we have said, is a very rich country and can
use this money (in fact it does) to build and tourism ... see in the pictures a hotel in Dubai "Mina A
'Salam at Madinat Jumeirah" which is a hotel in the island and rooms as wonderful as we see in the
picture ... But if you like to stay in one well, prepare enough money because there is little thing! .

the money in hotels ...
Now, they will build the world's largest hotel with 6,500 rooms.The design will be focused on
increasing tourism demand since it is expected that EE.AA.UU visits, to increase by 15
million in 2015.
