Last night, I had the incredible privilege of attending an exclusive Iftar hosted by Samsung at the breathtaking Bab Al Shams Desert Resort. And let me tell you, it was an experience that truly captured the spirit of Ramadan.
From the moment we arrived, we were enveloped in the enchanting atmosphere of the desert. The setting sun painted the dunes in hues of gold and amber, creating a magical backdrop for the evening. The resort, with its traditional Arabian architecture, provided the perfect ambiance for an authentic Iftar experience.
