The Experience
Before You Go
Hydrate frequently
Carry a refillable water bottle—temperatures rise quickly and bottled water is provided but running short can happen on long days.
Sun protection matters
Use high-SPF sunscreen and a brimmed hat; even short walks between attractions expose you to intense sun.
Comfortable, closed shoes
Expect paved walking and some gravel at outdoor sites like Miracle Garden; supportive shoes keep you moving comfortably.
Dress with respect
Wear lightweight clothing that covers shoulders and knees when visiting cultural sites to align with local norms.

Conservation Note
Water use and green-space maintenance are intensive—Miracle Garden relies on treated water and careful irrigation; coastal and wetland reserves like Ras Al Khor are protected to preserve migratory bird habitat.
Dubai evolved rapidly from a 19th-century fishing and pearling community into a 20th-century trading port and, after oil revenues and massive investment, into a global city of skyscrapers and entertainment.
