THE UAE’S STUNNING HAIR-TOSSING DANCE THAT LEFT TRUMP (AND THE WORLD) IN AWE
America is on a mission to strengthen its economy by developing better relations with the Gulf. To fulfill this goal, President Donald Trump visited the UAE to strengthen its economic ties with the Gulf countries.
This visit is of great importance not just from an economic point of view but also from a cultural point of view. When Trump came to the UAE, Sheikh Muhammad bin Zayed and his family welcomed the American president, along with the girls who performed a traditional dance that involves moving their heads from side to side to make their hair dance. In UAE tradition, it’s called “Al-Ayyala”.
On this occasion, people around the globe were amazed to see this because of the unfamiliarity of the UAE culture and its local traditions.
On social media, we saw an amazing response to this dance. Some said that it’s the most unique way of welcoming a guest, some said that it’s a tradition we had not heard about, and some said we need a detailed video about this dance.
In today’s fast-moving world, this activity influences people to know about the culture of the UAE, which brings people together. Every culture has its unique aspect, but despite Dubai’s popularity, people don’t think about the cultural aspect of the UAE.
