Dubai Miracle garden.
Posted on February 19, 2018
Located in Al Barsha south ( next to the Butterfly garden) this park is the biggest flower park in the region. More than 45 million blooming flowers across 72.000 sq/m. An abundance of flowers and at first almost an overwhelming smell from all these flowers. You have to remember that Dubai is all desert so imagine all the water that is needed to keep these flowers alive.

When in Dubai jump on an abra (old wooden boat) and head for the old souk in Dubai. it’s only 1 dirham. cheap, easy, fast and such a wonderful little trip on the water.
the old souk has everything you need and things you didn’t k now you needed. one street is all about gold and jewelry.
spices and different incense you can buy everywhere.
colors and vendors everywhere you look. Don’t forget to bargain !
