72,000 square metres, 50 million flowers and 250 million plants - the aptly named Dubai Miracle Garden invites you to a world of mind-blowing fascination, where there is nothing but enchanting flora as long as the eyes can see. A magical experience awaits you in the exotic Gulf city, far from reality.
The star attraction of the Dubai Miracle Garden, Hearts Passage is a true display of the very creativity and imagination that the bewitching park is renowned for. The massive florals set in the shape of a series of giant hearts take you on a walk into a dreamy paradise. The breathtaking passage depicts two of the most emblematic symbols of love — flowers and hearts. Vacationing in exotic Dubai with your inamorato/inamorata? There’s no place you’d rather be for an exquisitely romantic moment than the Hearts Passage in the beautiful Dubai Miracle Garden.
No matter how many times you may have flown, bet you’ve never seen an aircraft like the one that calls the Dubai Miracle Garden home. The life-size replica of an Emirates A380 is amongst the most popular attractions of the park, never failing to leave the many visitors of the garden in complete awe. A mind-boggling 500,000 flowers and plants cover the aircraft, making it the largest floral installation in the world. Feast your eyes on the unmissable sight, a truly mind-blowing botanical wonder.
The Dubai Miracle Garden is all about treating you to extraordinary sights and experiences and the garden’s enchanting Floral Clock is certainly something extraordinary. The 15-metre wide clock crafted entirely out of real flowers and plants definitely isn’t your regular clock. As if the breathtaking floral installation doesn’t boast enough fascination, the flowers that make up the clock also change according to the season. The working mechanical hands imported from the US make the Floral Clock not just a botanical wonder, but a real clock that can actually tell time.
A fairly new addition to the Dubai Miracle Garden, the Smurfs Village is another attraction that is on the path to breaking another set of Guinness World Records. Cultivating on the hit 3D fantasy, the park features giant size figures of the blue-hued Smurfs, treating you to a real-life Smurfs experience like never before. Complementing the stunning display of creativity and craftsmanship are the shows and performances hosted in the Smurfs Village every evening.
Things to do in Deira, Dubai, and the rest of the city may be plenty, but a stroll under the colourful Umbrella Tunnel of the Dubai Miracle Garden is just unmissable. Among all the fascinating botanical wonders and attractions that comprise the park, the canopy of striking umbrellas is one of the most creative sights of the park. After a day of exploring the beautiful Dubai Miracle Garden, retreat to one of the finest hotels the likes of Avani Deira Dubai Hotel.
