Dubai Metro Experience

Dubai Metro Gold Class

Hello Friends,  Today I'm sharing few words about Dubai Metro, many people knows about #Dubai metro already. First of all i have to say thank you to Dubai Metro and RTA(Road and transport authority) for an amazing Christmas, now you might ask why? I have been rewarded a bundle of Nol Plus points this month and i could shop everything for Christmas with the same. Being a resident of Dubai i am so happy that this Christmas was really amazing and the best from last 7 years. Majority of residents has family and financial problems so we usually doesn't celebrate anything which will cost some money. We try to save each Dirham. I feel like it was a Christmas gift from RTA for me. Thank you Dubai Metro & RTA.

#Dubai Metro is the most convenient transportation method in #Dubai. I would like to say #Dubai metro is an experience not just a method of transportation. At the moment Dubai Metro has 3 Lines, But 2 is currently operating and one is under construction. We have Red Line and Green Line operating now and the 3rd one is brand new 2020 Line waiting to inaugurate which is going to Expo 2020.
