VIDEO, PHOTOS: Hungarian library opened in the United Arab Emirates

Yesterday, the first Hungarian library opened in the United Arab Emirates, in Dubai’s International Business Tower, in the 1007 office. Congratulations to the enthusiastic founders and everybody who contributed to the successful project!

Kinga Judit Szabó has been living in the United Arab Emirates for 12 years. It was the successful businesswoman’s idea to create a Hungarian library in Dubai. She even donated her books to it, Magyar Nemzet wrote.

She wrote in a Facebook post that there were more than 5,000 Hungarians who live in the United Arab Emirates. She added that every Hungarian living in the UAE is an extraordinary person.

However, the Hungarian community there did not have a library before, even though Hungarian books can help them preserve their language, cultural heritage, and traditions. That is why she created the new library. She added that the entrance fee was one Hungarian book.
