Tourism in Dubai, part of the United Arab Emirates, is an important part of the Dubai government's strategy to maintain the flow of foreign cash into the emirate. Dubai's lure for tourists is based mainly on shopping, but also on its possession of other ancient and modern attractions. ==Cultural ethics and dress code== Homosexuality is illegal and can invite a jail term and deportation if convicted for being involved in homosexual acts. Kissing in public is illegal, expats in Dubai have been deported for kissing and having sex in public.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Women get jail and deportation for kissing on Dubai public beach )〕 Tourists are required to obey some Muslim religious restrictions in public even if they are not Muslim themselves; such as refraining from eating or drinking in public places in the daytime during Ramadan fasting. In 2008 one Russian woman was put on trial for drinking juice in public during the month of Ramadan. Dubai has a modest dress code. Sleeveless tops and short dresses are not allowed at Dubai's malls. The dress code is part of Dubai's criminal law. Clothes are advised to be in appropriate lengths.〔 Expats and tourists are not allowed to consume alcohol anywhere besides licensed venues or in private homes. Alcohol is allowed in licensed bars and hotel restaurants. Most restaurants in Dubai are not permitted to sell alcohol. Apostasy is a crime punishable by death in the UAE.
