#DubaiHeritage Queen Elizabeth 2 - Port Rashid Dubai

 #heritageweaves #yourconnectors

Years ago, we had the great privilege to visit spooky Queen Mary Ship and later on also see parts of Titanic wreckage in Halifax, and since then I was curious about this ship docked few kilometers away from my home in Dubai and thanks to my cousin, got a chance to finally visit and here is a bit of history:-)

*Queen Elizabeth 2 – Floating Hotel in Dubai*

The iconic *Queen Elizabeth 2 (QE2)*, once a legendary British ocean liner, is now permanently docked at *Port Rashid, Dubai*, transformed into a floating hotel and museum.

This historic ship, launched in 1969, served as a transatlantic cruise liner for nearly 40 years before arriving in Dubai in 2008. After a full refurbishment, it opened as a hotel featuring luxury rooms, fine dining, and exhibitions showcasing its rich maritime legacy.

*Location:* Port Rashid, Dubai

*Now:* Hotel, museum, and cultural attraction

*Legacy:* Over 1,400 voyages and 5.6 million nautical miles

A must-visit for history lovers and maritime enthusiasts!
