    "The Lost Space Aquarium in Atlantis, Dubai is worth a visit. It must be said that the offer is the best price for in-house guests. Visitors can stroll through the undersea tunnels that simulate the remains of the ancient city of Atlantis and observe more than 60,000 tailed marine life, including sharks, salmon and colorful tropical fish. The aquarium is designed to be in an ancient and mysterious underwater world, providing a unique experience. In addition, the aquarium offers opportunities to interact with marine life, including diving, snorkeling and feeding experiences, perfect for families."

    "It’s more worth to buy at the counter itself, they give 30% off the package as a bundle and it’s worth more. We regret not checking earlier but we enjoyed the attraction nonetheless. There was a lot to explore! The staff are very informative and friendly too if you ask them questions. They are very kind but are not used to people engaging them which is sad. They have a lot of information to offer about the animals :) the glass bottom boat is also very worth it!"

    "Maybe because it is the off-season in Dubai, the weather is too hot and there are very few people in the park. Almost every project is like a private venue. Except for the projects that are not opened, everything else is brushed casually. The center hall is very good. Every door can reach a theme."

    "It feels suitable for a slightly older child to play. The son is 13 years old and has projects that can't play, but it is indeed a worthwhile trip. Adults are also having fun. It is worth recommending. It is a very exciting project. It will be regretted when you go up."

    Highlights: The Green Planet Tropical Rainforest Indoor Botanical Garden is located in the CityWalk business district. It brings the amazing animals and plants of the Amazon to the desert country for people to watch. It is a new miracle in Dubai. At the center of the botanical garden is a 25-meter-tall artificial kapok covered with greenery and parasitic vines that fill the five-story glass space. Although the tree is fake, there is a variety of vegetation and animals on it: colorful purple-blue macaws and bright toucans skim the air, porcupines and sloths take sleepy walks, and fish come from farms in Singapore , many trees come from Thailand and India. In such an artificial forest, the entire interior is carefully controlled at 70% humidity and a temperature of 25-28 degrees Celsius. A total of more than 3,000 species of animals and plants have been introduced from all over the world into this constant temperature chamber, along the trails surrounding the giant kapok. Walking down slowly, you can vividly experience the different ecology of each level of the rainforest.

    "Our visit to Wild Wadi recently was great. The kids enjoyed the water slides. The place looks a bit old and needs an update. We enjoyed the lazy river water slide. They have available several places to lounge while one is not playing in water. We got swindled at the reception to buy a prepaid all you can eat meal plan at 185 AED. Once you arrive inside you discover the food is terrible and there are more nicer food options you could have had. Finding a secure phone charging point is impossible."

    No.7 of Water Fun Attractions in Emirate of Dubai
    Highlights: Wild Wadi Waterpark is located on the Jumeirah Public Beach in front of the Burj Al Arab Hotel. It's a relatively popular theme park in the Middle East. You can experience the pretty exciting "vertical capsule" ride in the park, to fall at relatively high speed from the air. You can also experience surfing in the wave pool, or leisurely float for a circuit. The park theme is that of the warrior Sinbad's exciting adventures as told in the Arabian legends. It combines Arab-style water constructs, while some water facilities are interconnected so there is no need to leave the water while playing inside.

    "On the edge of the Dubai River in the Iranian town, you can slowly stroll for an afternoon to learn about Dubai's development history and major industries. After visiting the Dubai River in the evening, you can cruise the Dubai River, see the scenery on both sides of the Straits, and then go to the night market in the Iranian town and eat Arabic food. Live in the town. Basically, the trip is not arranged for a full day. Very interesting."

    Highlights: Modern Dubai was formed in the early 20th century, when the ruling family established its dominance in this charismatic and historic community. Located on the shores of Dubai Creek, Ashdaga is now popular with tourists for attractions such as coral stone buildings with traditional wind towers, Dubai Folk Culture Village and Sheikh Saeedal Maktoum's former residence. The Al Shindagha Museum is known as a "must visit for anyone interested in Emirati culture and those who want to know more about Emirati culture" and there are many exhibitions here.

    "20230224 morning: 1. The "Last Exit" is a vehicle-themed Internet celebrity park on the outskirts of Dubai, similar to the rest area on the domestic highway. Although the whole park is not big, even every corner including the toilets is integrated with car elements, creative and novel, avant-garde grandeur, scrapped cars and landscape cars are strange, very similar to the armored car group in the movie "Mad Max", which is a must-check scenic spot for fashion petty bourgeoisie. ① Address: Zayed Avenue, Dubai, United Arab Emirates. This highway connects Dubai and Abu Dhabi. ② Transportation: No bus, easy to stop by car. ③ peak season: no. ④ Time: 1 hour. 2. The entrance to the park is a row of multi-lane passages like domestic high-speed toll ports, but each toll booth is a container, there is a strange car in front of "guarded". The outdoor area is dazzling: petrol barrel seats, iron dinosaurs (the back of the sword dragon is made of shovels, very creative), TV hills, stone-topped cars, yellow retro flip-flops (I had an exact same toy when I was a child), car skeleton flower pots and other landscapes. 3. The interior is even more unique. The interior decoration style is very similar to the road dining bar in the United States 50 years ago. There are also many creative landscapes: cars coming out of the wall, large iron balls hanging by chains, dense stickers, pirate decoration walls, All kinds of small entertainment facilities ( billiards, marble table, shooting machine), etc., my eyes are too busy to miss a corner. The exterior of the building is the bottom of a side-turned car, domineering. 4, the most wonderful in the toilet, the toilet facilities are composed of various auto parts: washbasin is a shovel for shovel, hand sanitizer bottle is a car oil bottle, the faucet needs to step on the brake brake, the head lamp is the front and rear lighting of the car, the toilet is like a cabin, The door handle is the gas station's gas pipe handshake, and the urinal partition is the door. 5. There is also a CS real battlefield in the scenic area. At this time, many locals at the front desk changed their military uniforms and took their weapons to prepare for killing. This is the only remaining amusement facilities in the park. Most of the equipment has been out of service and abandoned. The outdoor dining car has also been closed. Look at the photos of the previous years on the Internet. The style of the scenic spot has changed from the previous gorgeous cartoon shape to the current savage and unrestrained style, and I personally feel that the current park is more attractive to men. 6, the park is located on Zayed Avenue named after the UAE President Zayed, who united 6 emirates, has been a great success in the process of the UAE's founding, is a legendary figure in the UAE, and vigorously develops relations with China. There is also an interesting thing here. When he visited China in 1990, he was worried that he would not be used to Chinese food. He specially brought a few live sheep and a chef, but the first meal was impressed by Chinese food, and even wanted to pack it. After the meal, he gave a huge tip of 60,000 yuan to the Chinese chef. 7. On the highway, there is also a car park "Ferrari theme park". It is not open at 11:00. No wonder the Chinese are diligent and it is difficult to experience it without going abroad. We only looked at the entrance, and the black and white decoration style of Formula One cars around was very substituting. In addition, the gorilla at the door is a photo spot."

    Highlights: The truck park is inspired by the American road culture of the 1950s. The retro cartoon-shaped trucks with bright colors and different shapes have been transformed into special restaurants. They are very cute. It is inspired by the retro style of the 1950s in the United States. In addition to the feelings of American highways, there are cultural collisions with Arab countries. The design of the entire park is bright and moving without losing the retro style of the 1950s in the United States. The real identities of dozens of retro cartoon-shaped trucks and vans turned out to be restaurants serving takeaway food! You can get authentic American burgers, Mexican hot dogs, burritos, even Starbucks and more. Local Arabs come here by car and roll down the window to buy their favorite food.
