Dubai has broken yet another Guinness World Record; this time, for embracing diversity.
On Thursday, the Emirati city broke a world record after commuters from 96 countries formed the longest human chain on the Dubai metro.
The record coincided with the UAE's Public Transport Day, beating out a previous record set by Norway - which saw people from 75 different nationalities form a human chain - according to The Roads and Transport Authority (RTA.)
The event took place in celebration of RTA's 13th anniversary in support of Dubai's "efforts to improve the environment and achieve sustainable development."
The UAE's Minister of Tolerance Sheikh Nahyan Bin Mubarak Al Nahyan pointed out the fact that the record was achieved on the same day as UAE Flag Day.
"The achievement comes at a very opportune time as we also celebrate the UAE Flag Day," said Al Nahyan, according to Khaleej Times.
"We are a country of 200 nationalities and this shows the harmony and tolerance in the country that unite us together."
People were donning flag badges to identify their respective countries. They also wore customized t-shirts with the hashtag #WeMoveTogether - highlighting the UAE's role in embracing diversity.
Not the first time UAE breaks a record for diversity
In 2017, a Sikh temple in Dubai entered the Guinness World Records for giving back to the community in the most unique way possible.
The Dubai based Sikh temple Gurudwara Gurunanak Darbar served free continental breakfasts to "the maximum number of people from diverse nationalities." That's 600 people from 101 countries to be exact.
Officials from the Guinness Book of World Records announced that the event, titled Breakfast for Diversity, "broke the previous record of 55 nationalities having a continental breakfast, organized by Nutella" at the 2015 Milan Expo.
