Many in the UAE have been wanting to pay respects after the passing of Her Majesty Queen Elizabeth II. The retired British ocean liner, which was converted into a floating hotel in Dubai, is welcoming people to pay respects and offer condolences at the QE2 in Port Rashid.

Since the announcement, many have travelled to QE2, leaving flowers and notes and writing in the book of condolences

A historic time for the British people and the world. Thankful for over 30 years of a magnificent Monarch, who has inspired me in more ways than one. Some woman for one woman. RIP Elizabeth II 🖤🇬🇧 #respect #KingCharlesIII #GSTK #QE2 pic.twitter.com/c6B5v7InWR
