It provides a wide range of shopping remedies, from luxury labels to jewellery and crafts shops, alfresco dining, and frequent street entertainment events. This is also ideal for a soothing walk along the waterfront, which makes the trip more pleasurable because of the gentle breeze from the Arabian Gulf.

Miracle Garden
The name is self-speaking. Every year the Emiratis grow a picturesque array with more than 45 million flowers of about 60 different varieties in the centre of the deserts.
In addition to the amazing flowers that have been planted for the first time in the Gulf Area, the gardens also host various monuments, such as a huge clock, Burj Khalifa’s replica, and tunnels. However, the Miracle Garden opens its doors only for up to 1 million visitors each year during the winter, due to the vivid summers. If water management is to be taken into consideration, the flowers are irrigated by the drainage system by reusing the wastewater.
Wafi Light And Sound Show
The show will impress its viewers with its dazzling mix of entertaining graphics and orchestrated music based on the theme, Returning of Pharaoh. The lighting is projected onto the pyramids and other architecture influenced by Egypt, which are the defining aspects of the Wafi Mall.

The Emirates Kart Zone is in the Sports Club Al Wasl and is a 7-minute drive from Dubai Mall.
