The best time to visit Dubai is from November to March, when it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere. A few tips:

* Tourists should prepare to get the local currency in advance, because they need to make reservations with major banks to exchange for dirham, Utour suggests.

* Too much skin exposure is frown upon in the religious country, so miniskirt, slippers and backless clothes should be avoided, she explains.

* If travelers are traveling during Ramadan, the month of fast once a year in Dubai, they should avoid drinking wine or dining in public places.

There are direct flights from Beijing to Dubai now that take a little more than five hours. Tourists can also choose to fly to Abu Dhabi and then transfer to Dubai by car.
