About Dubai Butterfly Garden

The Dubai Butterfly Garden is a set of climate-controlled domes filled with thousands of butterflies from around the world. They fly freely around you as you walk through, and may even land on you.

There is also a small museum of butterflies and insects. Plan about an hour.

It sits right next to the Dubai Miracle Garden, so in season you can see both on the same trip.
