Nice Ride

In Dubai, individuals frequently express their affluence and elegance through unconventional means of transportation. Take, for instance, this gentleman who proudly showcases his social standing by commuting to work on the back of his pet lion, Gertrude.

As working-class residents in Dubai make their way to their workplaces by bicycle or on foot, they gaze upon this spectacle with a mix of admiration and longing. There may be an element of fear being too close to a potentially hungry lion, the allure of exhibiting one’s success to the world outweighs the risks involved. It serves as a testament to the city’s penchant for showcasing opulence and establishing oneself as a symbol of achievement.
