Once you've acquired a working knowledge of the local culture and practiced them (not letting your wife drive, she must wear a black robe, certain words and/or christian emblems can't be worn etc.) the first place or places I'd recommend visiting are the Schwarma stands. They're usually found around malls, stores, and anywhere else people congregate. They don't sell pork, of course, but rack of lamb mostly, and sometimes chicken or beef. They're spit often carries a fresh marinated rack of lamb and they offer the meal on a wrap with various condiments, including french fries, pickles and tomatoes. In my opinion, one of the best foods ever!

Remember these taxis not actually taxis u always know but only ordinary car drivers that will take u wherever u wanna go n dont be surprise if the driver is as young as your 13 years old brother!!!!!!!!!Here it is a norm,I even saw this boy maybe around 12 got caught by police and still he still calmly playing text with his phone!!!!

All I can say it was the most beautiful and peaceful place in this world. I still dream of returning. One place in the world you must visit you never want to sleep and a place where you find yourself.

Bizarre nighlife and eating out when you are always surrounded by other men. My tip is: either dine in, or make sure you have many friends, or bring some good books with you...
