Dubai Metro has just turned 10, and the entire country is celebrating.

Leave it to Dubai residents to be a wee bit sentimental on social media, but no complaints there.

Dubai-ans got all up in their feelings (as one would with a birthday)

A lovely lady had kept all her previous nol cards from way back

Quite iconic, resident Rose Marie has practically celebrated all metro anniversaries.

Another user praised the Dubai Metro for being the best Arabic teacher

Same, bro, same.

I’ll always thank #DubaiMetro for teaching me the only Arabic I know.

“Al Abvabu Tughlaq”

Nostalgia: before the ladies compartment and gold-class areas

#DubaiMetro confessions:
I miss standing right in front feeling like I am driving the metro and watch the buildings pass by .
Now, I have to either be a woman (ladies compartment) or very rich (Gold class) to experience that feeling again.

I mean, the metro’s so loved that even car owners ditch their vehicles

…from time to time.

WoW – 10 years #DubaiMetro
I have a car but still enjoy the metro – no beating it.

Timelessness ✅
Cleanliness ✅

Time flies!

Some even recall riding the metro during its inauguration back in 2009.

I was one of the lucky travelers on Inaugural Metro ride on 9-9-9 #metro@10 #dubaimetro #dubailife
