Sobre esta Trap
During Ramadan, eating, drinking or smoking in public is not allowed in daylight, and most restaurants stay closed until sunset. Hotels are the exception, serving non-fasting guests discreetly, and room service carries on. Keep water and snacks in your room for private use, and call ahead because sights often change their hours. Evenings are the reward, with restaurants filling after iftar and many staying busy late into the night.
