Dubai Miracle Garden

حديقة دبي المعجزة

The world’s largest natural flower garden, where 50 million flowers form the shapes of an Emirates A380, Mickey Mouse and heart-shaped arches in the desert; open only in winter.

Dubai Miracle Garden opened in 2013 and covers 72,000 square metres, with more than 50 million flowers and 250 million plants, making it the world’s largest natural flower garden. The flower displays are renewed every year. Highlights include a full-size Emirates A380 aircraft covered with 500,000 flowers (a Guinness World Record for “largest flower sculpture”), an 18-metre-high Mickey Mouse flower sculpture, a heart-shaped flower arch tunnel, a flower castle, floating vases and waterfalls, a “smiling sun” flower field, and a butterfly garden. The adjacent Dubai Butterfly Garden is a separate attraction with its own ticket, around AED 60. The garden is open only in the cooler months, usually from early November to early May, and closes in summer for high-temperature maintenance. Adult tickets cost about AED 95–105 and child tickets about AED 80. You can buy them on site or online. Weekends and public holidays are extremely crowded, so it is best to visit on a weekday morning as it opens, or go after 16:00 when the light is softer and the temperature drops, and stay until the lights come on at night. The garden is in the Dubailand area on the southern outskirts of Dubai, about 25 km from the city centre, with no direct metro access. From Mall of the Emirates metro station, take bus 105 for about 30 minutes, or a taxi costs around AED 60–70. Shade is limited, so bring a hat and water, as the UV is strong even at midday in winter. The Global Village, a winter night-time cultural market and amusement park featuring countries from around the world, is nearby, so you can plan the garden in the afternoon and the Global Village in the evening.
