His Highness Shaikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, recently posted a timelapse video of Downtown Dubai, from sunrise to sunset.
An avid photographer, Shaikh Hamdan regularly posts photos and videos on Instagram, from around the UAE and his travels abroad. On February 22, the Crown Prince situated himself on top of a tower around the iconic Downtown Dubai which is home to the world's tallest tower, the Burj Khalifa, and recorded a breathtaking timelapse video the sun rise and sun set on the city. 
Known as the city of lights, it's quite the spectacle seeing Downtown light up as the sun sets in the yonder and a full moon rises into the sky.
