Dubai metro, enjoy a ride


Dubai Metro is considered as one of the best in the world. The fully automated metro began their services on 09/ 09/09. Everything is computer controlled, no drivers at all! Two lines, red and green have become fully operational. With its introduction, the road traffic congestion has lessened in this booming world-class city. The ride on the metro is really awesome! 


Most of the iconic structures in Dubai are visible along the way. The trains run smoothly and efficiently. 


If you are visiting Dubai enjoy a ride on the metro. There are single trip tickets, one-day full fare card, and rechargeable long-term cards. The Metro officials were extremely helpful to assist passengers. 
    
There are platform edge doors that will open only when the train arrives at the station. No open platforms anywhere, all fitted with platform screen doors. The platforms including the cabins are fully air-conditioned.    

The metro is well-connected with all the important landmarks in Dubai. The third picture from the top shows the walkway connecting the Burj Khalifa station and the Dubai Mall. 

Beautiful metro!
