A flower garden opened in November? Exactly: in Dubai, the city where everything is possible, it just happened. And we are not talking about just any flower garden, but the biggest in the world!
It is clear that in the Emirates, breaking records is an end in itself: just last week the world's largest infinity pool with 360-degree views and part of the longest 'human chain' were inaugurated. The Dubai Miracle Garden , for its part, is proud of its 72,000 square meters full of petals and colours, in which butterflies and… The Smurfs are particularly relevant.
“The most outstanding of the novelties that incorporates Dubai Miracle Garden in this tenth season is a list of exciting floral installations inspired by The Smurfs , the famous children's animation franchise that is about a fictional community of little blue creatures that live in mushroom-shaped houses in the forest”, they say from Dubai Tourism.
Thus, a special attraction centered on the Smurfs' Village houses d life-size mushroom house scenes and is decorated with furniture inspired by the animated series. "Children and adults will have the opportunity to enter these innovative unique houses and share the experience of living as a character from The Smurfs," they continue.

This year, in addition to the attractions dedicated to The Smurfs, this huge garden adds to its list of novelties a three-dimensional clock completely redesigned, a "floating rock" with a fountain, floral peacocks and two flower displays inspired by the favorite characters of the little ones, with a genius inspired by that of Aladdin almost 15 meters high and a 'flying magic carpet'.
THE AMAZING BUTTERFLY GARDEN
Aren't butterflies like winged flowers? It makes sense, therefore, that at the heart of the Dubai Miracle Garden is the Dubai Butterfly Garden , where they live more than 15,000 species of these fascinating animals. With nine vaults built expressly for this purpose, the enclosure occupies a total of 2,600 square meters in which "visitors can see with their own eyes how these colorful insects stop being caterpillars to evolve into incredible flying beings".
The Museum of Butterflies and Insects, included in the enclosure, offers, according to Dubai Tourism, an in-depth analysis and detailed information on thousands of colorful species of butterflies from around the world "that will allow discover the fascinating life of these mysterious creatures , as well as curious facts about them that, without a doubt, will leave the whole family speechless”.
