The Best Parks to Visit in Dubai
With the extremely high temperatures during Dubai’s summer, people don’t often think of the city as a place for outdoor activities. However, Dubai has an array of parks where people can visit, enjoy a picnic and see plenty of greenery – in the middle of the desert. During winter, spring and fall, the city’s temperature is really pleasant and a day at the park is the ideal way to unwind and see a whole other side of Dubai.
