Shaikha Muneera wants to learn more about Spain because she finds its traditions interesting and different from the UAE. Spain is about 7 hours away from the UAE by plane. It has a population of 15.5 million people and a climate that includes cold and hot temperatures along with four seasons of winter, spring, summer and autumn. Traditional Spanish clothing is very different from the clothes typically worn in the UAE like shalah and abaiah, and is often worn for special events and occasions.
