So, what’s the story with this street?

Well, back in the day, it was called ‘Al Dhiyafa’ Street, which means “hospitality” in Arabic. Pretty fitting, right? The people here are super welcoming! In 2011, it was renamed after the ‘United Arab Emirates’ National Day, which is on December 2nd. That’s the day all seven emirates joined forces to create the UAE we know today.

You can even visit Union House, the place where it all happened, right near the end of the street!
