In winter, the night skies are very transparent. One reason for this clarity, especially on a winter's night, is that the cold air can't hold as much moisture as the warm air can. Due to this, less pollution is settled with the humidity in summer, making the sky look hazier.
Beneath the night sky, you can have a delicious barbecue meal. This evening will be followed by other traditional entertainment activities, including belly dance and applying henna.
Due to the lack of water in the desert, the desert gets warmer at night than the coastal areas. The soil of the desert cannot hold heat, so the desert can be as much as 7 °C cooler in the evening.
You can plan outdoor dining at this temperature, whether the open sky barbecue dinner or other cafes, which would be more comfortable in winter than in scorching summer sands. These cafes offer a cozy space to sit and relax, with cute chairs and beanbags; for some reason, mirrors are everywhere. People drove for an hour to reach their favorite spots and enjoy a cup of matcha or special dessert brunches.
