Is Dubai Miracle Garden Worth It?

Do you want to know whether visiting Dubai Miracle Garden is worth it, or should you spend your time elsewhere?

Dubai Miracle Garden is not like any other garden you have visited in other countries in the world. Here you won’t see just flowers, but monuments covered with flowers.

If you love flowers and looking for something different in Dubai and more natural, Dubai Miracle Garden is worth visiting.

Is Dubai Miracle Garden Worth It?

Dubai Miracle Garden with over 45 million blooming flowers in vibrant colors and unique designs spread across 72,000 square meters of land holds not one, but three Guinness World records.

It is the world’s largest vertical garden, the largest floral installation of the Airbus A380, and the tallest topiary art at Disney Avenue.

What is Dubai Miracle Garden?

Dubai Miracle Garden was opened on Valentine’s Day on the 14th of February 2013.

It is the world’s largest natural flower garden with almost 150 million different flowers used to build replica monuments, cartoons, and other interesting objects.

You could see there a replica of the Burj Khalifa, Emirates A380, the Eiffel Tower, Disney cartoons, a floral clock, a lake park, and more. The themes of the Garden are changed every year.

As Dubai is in the desert and temperatures are very high, especially during the summer, the garden is open from October to May and it is closed during the summer months when the flowers would have died.

Why is Dubai Miracle Garden so special?

I visited Dubai Miracle Garden back in 2016 during the cooler months, in March. As it was not so hot and sunny, we had a very nice time there.

When you enter inside, it is really like a Miracle. Everything is built of flowers. We were fascinated by all the designs and hard work that was put into creating such a spectacular garden.

You can walk around admire different monuments, relax on a bench, take stunning Instagramable pictures, have a romantic date, and have a drink or snack.

As the garden is outdoors, it is under direct sun with some shade only around the eating area. Therefore, it is not good to visit when it is very hot.

How to get to Dubai Miracle Garden

By car

Having a car in Dubai is the easiest way for you to move around. So if you can rent a car, it is the best way to get there. Dubai Miracle Garden is located at Street 3, Al Barsha, Al Barsha South. There is a huge car park for 2000 cars to park.

By taxi

If you don’t have a car, the second easier way is to take a taxi, which we did. Taxis are very common transportation in Dubai.

By public transportation

Not the best way, but probably the cheapest way is by public transportation. You can take a metro to the Mall of the Emirates stop and from there take bus route 105. The bus takes 25 minutes and will drop you right in front of the garden.

Tips for visiting Dubai Miracle Garden
