Dubai’s scorching summer season has arrived, and with it comes the temporary closure of several popular family attractions. The closures, which began on June 2nd with the Dubai Safari Park, are intended to conserve energy and water during the hottest months of the year.
While some attractions have already shut down, others will remain open for a limited time. Al Wasl Plaza, a captivating water feature at Expo 2020, will close its doors soon to reduce water usage during the peak heat.
Dubai Miracle Garden, known for its dazzling displays of flowers and plants, will provide families with a bit more time for summer fun. The garden is scheduled to remain open until June 15th, offering visitors a chance to experience its vibrant floral creations before the summer closure.
These closures are a common practice in Dubai, where extremely high temperatures can make outdoor activities uncomfortable and resource-intensive. By temporarily shutting down attractions, authorities aim to reduce energy consumption required for cooling systems and water usage for landscaping.
The closures provide an opportunity for families to explore alternative indoor activities or plan visits to attractions that remain open during the summer. Dubai offers a variety of air-conditioned malls, museums, and entertainment centers that can provide enjoyable experiences for families seeking to escape the heat.
With careful planning, families can still have a memorable summer in Dubai. Whether it’s exploring indoor attractions, enjoying water activities at resorts, or planning trips in the cooler evenings, there are plenty of ways to make the most of this season.
