July will be very hot and very humid. Do you have to go then?

OK. I haven't been there for a long time and there's a huge amount of construction going on so I'm not sure what there is to see and do now - but bear in mind that you won't be able to spend much time outdoors.

Hi. Well, Colin is right. The temperature in July might be around 45 - 47 Celsius. I had been there last year in July and August. The heat is like oven, walking down the street is really tiring.
Well, there are a few activities you can do during that time. Some youngsters will go for water skiing. If you want, you can also go desert safari. Shopping more or less. Not much of sight seeing.
