Low-crowd International Destinations from UAE

The daily rush of being in a busy city life is really much relatable. The busy streets, the need to be available on call for work and last minute updates, the heat from which there is no way to run or hide. It’s all the same that calls for a break that feels like getting unplugged from those busy days and the constant need to be always available to the duties around you. Once in a while you should recharge yourself. 

Going out for a short break is something that is really essential. People prefer different vibes upon selecting a destination or planning a trip and there are a few that always chooses the most quiet, calm and relaxing destinations. The people that prefer to explore places that are least visited, where it is hard to find a crowd here and there. Most probably there are people who visit solo trips to such situations or a calm family holiday to a very quiet place.

This blog is all about such destinations where you can prepare, inhale and exhale in patience and ensure you get that peaceful time for yourself.

Destination 1: Kyrgyzstan 

Imagine a place where you can hike for hours without seeing another soul. Yes this trip takes you to the Switzerland of central Asia. A night at Son-Kul Lake is the perfect recharge for you with no wifi, no electricity, the sound of horses and the endless starlit sky right above your head enjoying that wine till dawn is a dreamlike journey. This incredibly quiet journey to Kyrgyzstan will only take nearly a 4 hours flight from Dubai/Sharjah. Here you get to see endless rolling hills, yurt stays and the alpine lakes and the temperature is really calm, cool and low.

Kyrgyzstan is a landlocked jewel from central Asia bordered by Kazakhstan (North), China (East/Southeast), Tajikistan (South), and Uzbekistan (West).the capital being Bishkek, Majority of the place is covered by mountains, specifically the massive Tian Shan (Heavenly Mountains) and Pamir ranges. This will be a breathtaking and contrasting view for the UAE life filled with vast flat land and huge buildings hand in hand.

The official languages of the land if Kyrgyz and Russian even though a familiar ‘Salam’ does mean a casual greeting of goodness here. While English is growing among the youth in Bishkek, Russian is the "lingua franca" for getting around.

Destination 2: Uzbekistan 

So just a 3 hour flight to Tashkent or Samarkand can take you to another calm exit that feels like 1000 years away from the UAE modern glass tower life. The silk road time machine journey to Uzbekistan is your perfect unplugging from the rush you want relaxation from.

Uzbekistan is the land that feels like stepping into a story book of blue tiles and ancient desert air, a walk through the Registan in Samarkand at dawn with not many tourists to arrive in the silence at that massive courtyard is such a spiritual relief. 

Here the common currency used is Uzbek Som (UZS), even though cards are becoming more in use, when you go to the bazaars it is important to carry cash in hand. Modest but breathable. Uzbekistan is a secular but traditional Muslim country. For both men and women, linen trousers and cotton shirts are better than shorts to respect local norms and stay cool.

Destination 3: Montenegro

It is located in Southeastern Europe on the Balkan Peninsula. It sits directly on the Adriatic Sea and is bordered by Croatia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Serbia, Kosovo, and Albania. The word ‘Montenegro’ literally means "Black Mountain" (Crna Gora). When you see the dark, pine-covered peaks rising straight out of the sparkling blue Adriatic Sea, the name makes perfect sense.
