  Redder than Amsterdam!

To say that Dubai is swarming with prostitutes would be a mild understatement. Put aside your logic that these things aren't supposed to happen in a Muslim country, and take into account the fact that the No. 1 religion in this city is money.

Anyway, if you're a single woman, don't enter a bar or club alone. Even if it's a swanky club in a well-reputed area, atleast go in with a group of friends or acquaintances you might have here. Because there's no such thing as a designated red-light area, most men here seem to think that any woman, anywhere is fair game. And there are some areas you should go out of your way to avoid, unless your definition of 'adventure tourism' is really out there! Deira Roundabout, Naif Road, Bur Dubai interiors - all no go's.

Stay sensible, stay safe. Just a few normal precautions, and your trip will be as enjoyable as you want it to be.
