Discover more than 45 million blooming flowers in stunning designs, awesome shapes, and eye catching colors at Dubai’s groundbreaking Miracle Garden, an extravagant outdoor recreational destination that even in its first phase provides state-of-the-art facilities to visitors, including a prayer room, carts for visitors with disabilities, and commercial kiosks. See the world’s longest wall of flowers, and wander the 3D butterfly garden to see lovely butterflies both in the garden and museum. Admire sculptures of UAE landmarks made entirely from flowers, and savor the powerful aromas of medicinal plants from more than 200 countries. You are invited to touch and smell the plants, and can even make your own cup of tea fresh from the garden. Marvel at the huge flower clock made out of real plants and flowers, with a changeable design depending on the season. The souvenir shop is the ideal place to pick up a gift for your friends back home, including a variety of butterfly-related merchandise, while a children’s play area is the perfect spot to keep the kids entertained with games specifically designed to provide physical activities. A small stage also presents occassional magic and illusion shows. Then, go to Global Village, which now has a permanent home on Emirates Road at Exit 37. Held annually, from October through March, Global Village presents an extravaganza of shopping and entertainment in an open-air theme park.
