We headed to Ski Dubai out of curiosity. Just to drink a cup of inexpensive coffee in an expensive cafe overlooking the track behind the glass. The building itself seemed funny to me : ) A toy track under a dome, artificial snow in the desert - great: ) By the way, the Arabs are very proud of this building of theirs. It's no joke - snow in the desert! In the yard + 30, behind glass 1-6 C below zero. My husband, a pragmatic man, flatly refused to go inside. "What, I haven't seen snow"? And point. Of course, paying such money for snow for a person of the middle zone with snowy winters and frosts would be unheard of stupidity, but the Arabs perceive it as a luxury and even a kind of wonder of the world. By the way, Arab women do not take off their abaya (traditional women's outfit) to go inside, immediately over it they put on down jackets - long, up to the ankles.
The performance begins when ladies in down jackets fly down the hills, crashing into a snowdrift and throwing their legs back, squealing and rejoicing like children. Like I said, it's a fun place : )
