Step through the glass façade at City Walk and the air changes—warm, damp, and alive. Light filters through a constructed canopy as a sloth lingers in the mid-level branches and toucans flash color against trunks that climb four stories. The Green Planet recreates a tropical forest inside Dubai’s urban grid, compressing layers of jungle into paths, observation decks and an accessible vertical trail.

Grippy, closed-toe shoes help on damp ramps and exhibit platforms.
