An Instagram post by His Highness Sheikh Hamdan bin Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Crown Prince of Dubai, received more than 1,000 likes per minute on Monday night after it showed him riding the London Underground.
One of the iconic features of the British capital, it is used by millions of people every single day. And it can now add the Crown Prince and his father, His Highness Sheikh Mohammed bin Rashid Al Maktoum, Vice President and Prime Minister of the UAE, and Ruler of Dubai to that list.
While it is not entirely evident which line the Royal family were taking, the red poles suggest it is the Central Line, which runs all the way from West Ruislip in the west to Epping in the east (that being the longest single journey one can take without change; a total of 34.1 miles). It passes through the likes of St Paul’s, Tottenham Court Road, Bank, Oxford Circus, Marble Arch and Notting Hill Gate
