Updated : Apr 18, 2014, 06.30 PM IST
Everyone knows that Dubai has the world’s tallest skyscraper and the tallest hotel, but the Emirate is not just about concrete and steel edifices. Yet another one of Dubai’s superlative claims in the Guinness Book of World Records is a monument to urban landscaping—the Dubai Miracle Garden. Spreading across an area of 72,000 square metres, the garden is a coverlet of an astounding 45 million flowers emblazoned in a variety of shapes and patterns. Filled with elaborate flowerbed arrangements in the shapes of arches, hearts, igloos, pyramids and so forth, the garden is very much a man-made wonder. The garden is open from October to May, and remains closed in the months of summer (June to September). Gates open from 9am to 9pm on weekdays, and from 9am to 11pm on weekends.
