More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step out of air-conditioned Dubai into an engineered garden that seems to insist on brightness: arches of roses, sculpted peacocks, and tunnels of marigolds pushing color into the late afternoon. The Miracle Garden’s floral installations hold the heat at bay for a little while, petals folding and unfolding like a city-wide exhale, before the drive takes you toward the glittering sprawl of Global Village where lights, music and international pavilions crowd the night.
