The Dubai Miracle Garden is unique in that it was essentially built on a desert. Head landscaper Akar says that the grounds are a great example of how it is possible to “green the desert” by reusing waste water.

Unlike most of the gardens around the world, the Dubai Miracle Garden closes during the summer due to severe weather conditions.
