Dubai Metro Launched

At exactly 9 minutes and 9 seconds past 9pm on 09.09.09, history was made as the landmark Metro service was officially inaugurated.

I am actually referring to the Longest Driverless Metro Train which I posted several days ago. 
Here are some pictures taken on that memorable inauguration.


This is 1 of the 29 Metro train stations which is now operational.

This is the interior of the train. A combination of blue and white color.

Beautiful facade of metro station during the night.
