An adventure in the desert and bazaar

In the morning, I wandered around the bazaar; the colors were so vivid, and the air was filled with the scent of spices. In the afternoon, I drove along the desert highway, where the vast view made time seem to slow down. I stopped the car, the wind whooshed past my ears, and golden sand dunes stretched in the distance. When I returned to the city at night, it was still bright; the sunlight was dyed orange, and the whole city felt gentle. Renting a car through Trip.com was really worry-free, completely my own road.
