Travel: Dubai Miracle Gardens

The Dubai Miracle Gardens – what a stunning place to spend a morning. We visited on one of the hottest mornings and enjoyed every hot moment in the sun. The floral displays are stunning – and you have to see them with your own eyes.

Some look like they’re from a Dr. Seuss book while others are massive animals – oh, and they’re a full sized plane! Be sure to bring water, since the whole place it outside, and shade isn’t plentiful. Okay, let’s check out some photos.

First up, no need to get your tickets early – we got them at the door and didn’t wait one bit. I laughed when I first saw the horses on the tickets. Just wait!

As soon as you enter, these two beauties give you the biggest grinning welcome!

I’ll admit, it was a little overwhelming at first since we didn’t know which way to turn. The property is one big circle with various paths wardering in and out of floral sections.

In the photo above there was so much to look at. Yes, the horses, but can you see the peacocks in the background? They have massive tails that are lush and full of so much dimension. It’s wild.

I loved these drooping plants – they looked so fun, pouring over in excess.

Want to know something wild? We didn’t see a single bug. Not a bee or any other pollinator. No butterflies or other insects that would be buzzing and flying about. Strange, eh? You’d think there would be some with over 250 million plants and it being the largest flower garden in the world.

This walkway was stunning – not only was the shade awesome, but the view out was wild – it’s hard to capture on the camera. Looking out and seeing rows of flowers with staggering sunlight in between is beautiful.
