Burj Khalifa, the world's tallest building, lit up in the colours of the Polish flag to mark the 100th anniversary of regaining independence on Sunday (November 11).
Dubai's landmark joined other landmark buildings around the world like the pyramids in Egypt, the statue of Christ the Redeemer in Rio de Janeiro, the Leaning Tower of Pisa or the Seoul's City Hall, which were illuminated in white and red.
On November 11 Poles commemorate the establishment of the second Polish republic in 1918 from territory seized by its eastern and Western neighbours in the 18th century, made possible by the defeat of Russia, Germany and Austria in World War One.
