Dubai
The Green Planet is like an oasis in the desert, bringing the incredible ecosystem of the South American Amazon rainforest to life. This vast glass biodome, located at City Walk, covers an area of around 60,000 square feet and houses over 3000 unique species of plants and animals. From colorful hyacinth macaws and toco toucans to nocturnal porcupines and crocodile lizards, there's a diverse range of life here.
Developed by Meraas and operated by ZoOceanarium Group, the Green Planet boasts an elegant cylindrical shape, resembling a folded piece of origami paper. Every detail has been meticulously designed to recreate the rainforest environment authentically. The highlight is a towering 25-meter-high artificial Kapok-style tree, adorned with vines and figs, serving as a habitat for many exotic species. A captivating waterfall attached to the tree adds to the atmosphere, filling the air with a refreshing mist.
With its four levels—Flooded Rainforest, Forest Floor, the Midstory, and the Canopy—the biodome covers all aspects of the ecosystem. There are surprises at every turn, from the Australian Walkabout and Bat Cave to encounters with sloths, sugar gliders, and reptiles. Visitors even have the chance to touch and hold a real python.
Exploring the biodome is made easy with a spiral walkway around the tree or by boarding an elevator. Adventurers shouldn't miss the opportunity to traverse a rope suspension bridge leading to a treehouse, offering unrivaled views of the artificial tree.
For nature enthusiasts or families seeking a break from the desert heat, a trip to the Green Planet is a must-do in Dubai. It's an immersive experience that promises lush greenery and a cool ambiance, making it perfect for all ages.
