EXAMPLE
Dubai
Dubai has a hot desert climate. In summer, temperatures can reach 50°C, and the sun is very strong. Because of this,people spend most daytime hours indoors. Outdoor activities like jogging or construction work happen early in the morning or late in the evening to avoid the heat. At night, people enjoy desert camping, camel rides, or outdoor markets when it’s cooler.
