Dubai has set a world record as it celebrated the UAE’s Golden Jubilee.

The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA), in collaboration with Aramex, collected the largest number of greeting cards from around the world under the slogan, ‘Different Languages, One Message: We Love the UAE’.

A huge mural was erected in the middle of the Dubai Festival City, showing images of people from all over the world in popular costumes of different cities carrying large greeting cards bearing the event’s slogan.
