Description
The Dubai Miracle Garden is one of the largest flower gardens in the world with over 50M flowers and 250M plants. It combines vertical and horizontal landscaping techniques to form thematic design and structures. Its Airbus 380 structure comprising 500,000 flowers currently features in the list of Guiness World Records. The garden operates each year from October to May when the temperatures are more propitious to flowers than the very hot summer months.
Access & Transport
The garden is located in Dubailand, a large area still under development in the south of the city. The closest metro stations are Mall of the Emirates and Dubai Internet City, a 15 min drive away, so taxi / driving is the most efficient way to get there and there are free parking lots onsite
Instructions & Recommendations
We recommend avoiding the hottest hours of the day and combining it with the Dubai Butterfly Garden next door.
Environmental & Social
To maintain the flowers, treated wastewater from the city is being reused and watering occurs at night so the attraction is not as environmentally unsound as it can seem initially. Socially neutral
Conclusion
The Dubai Miracle Garden is an unexpected attraction in a desert city like Dubai, but with environmental credentials that are actually quite neutral and the potential to impress children and adults alike at a budget much lower than a theme park, it is worth considering.
Key positive
Not many comparable flower structures in other parts of the world
Family friendly and good photographic potential
Key negative
A little out of the way
Suitability
Suitable for all ages and no accessibility problem for visitors with reduced mobility
