Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed, Crown Prince of Dubai, has shared breathtaking footage of the emirate from the air.

in a post on Twitter, Sheikh Hamdan said the striking video showed a “city that knows no limits”.

The film soars over the emirate at night, before zooming past landmarks including Burj Khalifa and Atlantis, The Palm.

The bustling energy is encapsulated as aerial footage keeps pace with traffic making its way down Sheikh Zayed Road.

Sheikh Hamdan is a supporter of celebrating creativity in the emirate.

On Sunday he announced the launch of a freelance licence category to attract global media, education, technology, art, marketing and consultancy professionals.

The initiative, known as “talent pass”, will be a boost to Dubai Airport Freezone and strengthen the emirate’s position as a global destination for innovators and talent, DAFZ said.
