WHAT TO DO IN DUBAI: VISIT THE MIRACLE GARDEN IN DUBAI
Dubai Miracle Garden is a garden located in the Dubai area. Inaugurated on Valentine’s Day 2013, it covers an area of over 72,000 square meters; this makes it the largest natural garden in the world with 45 million flowers. In April 2015, Dubai Miracle Garden received the prestigious Moselle Award as New Garden Experience of the Year. In the same year, a new area was inaugurated, the Dubai Butterfly Garden, the largest indoor butterfly garden in the world and the first to open in the region, with over 15,000 butterflies of 26 different species. Dubai Miracle Garden showcases a wide variety of flowers arranged in truly amazing shapes and colors, forming hearts, stars, igloos, pyramids and many other shapes. Floral motifs change with the seasons, so if you revisit them months later you will have a completely different experience
THE MIRACLE GARDENS DUBAI WHEN IT IS OPEN AND HOW IT WORKS
Dubai Miracle Garden is open from October to April and closed from May to September due to the high temperatures (over 40 degrees) in the area. The park is open every day from 9:00 to 21:00 and on Fridays and Saturdays from 9:00 to 23:00. To reach the Dubai Miracle Garden, however, it is necessary to go by car or with a comfortable taxi. It is located in the Dubailand area or outside the city and cannot be reached by metro. However, you can get there by bus no. 105, from the United Arab Emirates From the shopping center, it takes about 40 minutes. Flowers are kept in full health by reusing wastewater through drip irrigation, a method that slowly delivers water to plants through a mesh system which, minimizing water use, wets a small area of soil nearby. of the flower constantly or intermittently. In all, over 750,000 liters of water are used per day, and thanks to the use of waste water alone, waste is absolutely zero. Let’s see together which are the most beautiful and fascinating floral motifs and decorations.

The vibrant flowers lend a sense of verticality to Dubai Miracle Garden. Visitors navigate a wonderful passage that takes them to a lower part of the garden. From this vantage point, you can enjoy a unique perspective on the hill, with its colourful flowers rising from the bottom to the higher points. Up here, Dubai Miracle Garden looks like a valley of wonder. The surrounding multi-coloured petals and trees are accompanied by a number of coffee shops, as well as an ice cream bar. It’s an ideal spot for a family photo or couple’s selfie – with a warm coffee! Try different angles to see how much of this special Dubai flower garden you can capture.
SMURFS VILLAGE
Now in its majestic tenth year, the world’s largest natural flower garden unveils a new attraction that kids and kids-at-heart will surely adore. Dubai Miracle Garden is proud to announce the launch of its all-new Smurfs Village for the winter season, where the world of the beloved blue creatures will be displayed as delightful landscape arrangements, in a deal brokered by IMG. A forest of mushroom houses awaits the residents and tourists alike as they explore one of the city’s most visited destinations.
Based on the Belgian comics and well-acclaimed movie and television franchise, The Smurfs are small, blue creatures who live in a community of mushroom-shaped houses in their own harmonious village. The dynamic spectacle of display at Dubai Miracle Garden will feature four different areas including the Smurf Village, Smurf Activity Area, Smurf Topiaries, and another Guinness World of Record set to break, giving residents of Dubai something to truly look forward to this new season.
Guests will be transported to the world of the Smurfs as they enter a village of the loveable blue creatures. Dubai Miracle Garden’s Smurfs Village will feature exciting surprises, structures, and designs taking inspiration from the well-loved characters and their dwellings. A whole section of the garden will be transformed with special areas and zones for the visitors along with a stretch of vibrant and fascinating natural colorful flowers and plants. Guests can revel in extraordinary pathways displaying marvelous designs and landscapes that cannot be seen anywhere else. Visitors are in for a treat with some surprise characters and spectacular shows as the evening sets in.
FLORAL CLOCK
Time is a funny thing – we love to worry about it, and often feel like there’s never enough. While we usually look at our phone or wrist to check it, sometimes it’s nice to see it from a different vantage point. Dubai Miracle Garden offers one, in the form of a beautiful 15-metre floral clock. It’s made of real plants and flowers, whose designs we change according to the season – something particularly relevant to the shifting sands of time, daylight hours and the weather. The floral clock’s mechanical parts were brought in from the US, while our own in-house landscaping whizzes, Miracle Garden Landscaping, conceptualized its stunning design.
THE UMBRELLA TUNNEL
We’ve got more than one cool, colourful passage at Dubai Miracle Garden. Our Umbrella Passages are one of the most interesting, creatively designed spaces at the garden. We made the ceiling out of upside-down umbrellas, arranged in rings that are separated by bands of flowers, which have been arranged to match the colours of each umbrella section. Hanging green plants between sections of the ceiling cultivate a rainforest vibe. These passages aren’t simply made for walking, though. There are socially distanced chairs and tables that offer yet another spot to enjoy a meal from one of our many F&B options, sip on a coffee and breathe in the floral scents or even just enjoy a brief break from the walking.
LAKE PARK
Water and flowers are a wonderful combination, and you can see it come to life at our Lake Park. The scene created by the reflection of floral villas and 3D flower-laden models against the blue sky results in a sensational explosion of purple, green, red, pink, orange and blue hues of colour. It’s the perfect place to set your smartphone to pro or HDR mode and capture a fully saturated snap with your friends, family or special someone. With waterside creature models sitting next to sea travel vessels, all bound by Dubai Miracle Garden’s floral themes, the Lake Park captures every aspect of H2O and gives it a flowery makeover.
EMIRATES PLANE A380
With its unique, larger-than-life double-decker design, the Airbus A380 is one of the most loved super jumbo jets in the world – and no airline has more of them than Emirates, Dubai’s flagship carrier. We decided to honour the skies’ most impressive passenger vehicle in the most natural way we could: botanically. That’s why we collaborated with Emirates Airline to build the world’s largest floral installation – a life-size version of the Emirates A380. Set in the heart of the world’s largest flower garden, our A380 is covered in more than 500,000 fresh flowers and living plants. Built four years ago, it’s the biggest structure ever built at the garden and even holds a Guinness World Record. No wonder that the A380 is one of our most popular attractions.
FLOATING LADY
The newest attraction at Miracle Garden, the Floating Lady lies in the air, arms outstretched without a care in the world as her long hair dangles to the ground. Her dress is the star of the show. Its red and white petunias flow down from her horizontal position high on up above a field of flowers, giving an ethereal illusion that she has slowly been summoned forth to the sky by some mysterious ancient power. In the background, you can see the spires of the Floral Castle in the middle distance. Could the magnificent fortress have once been this fair maiden’s home?
FLORAL DESIGNS
The colors, designs and structure of our 3D floral characters are a testament to our team’s craft for the visitors of the region’s most popular flower garden. We reinvigorated the concept by beautifully merging these characters with vibrant flowers and giving them a remarkable look, as well as unique designs. From giant floral mushrooms and humanoid ants with flowery thoraxes to rose-laden swans and flower-powered cars, our team’s imagination knows no bounds, and these attractions have proven a long-time favourite at Dubai Miracle Garden.
SUNFLOWER FIELD
As their name suggests, sunflowers love the sun. In fact, they need it so badly that they actually turn to face it when they’re young. It’s only fitting, then, that sunflowers look their finest on bright, sunny days. Their yellow petals absorb and reflect light beautifully and provide a natural, stunning background to any photos, whether you’re taking them with a pro-grade DSLR or a mid-range smartphone. The effect is multiplied further when you look at a field packed with thousands of them. Did you know that a sunflower itself isn’t just one flower, but thousands of little ones? That’s why the big brown bit at their centre is so fuzzy – it’s the feeling of many little flowers on your fingers!
