Tickets are only needed for the two indoor attractions, the Cave of Miracles and the Glass House, at AED 5 each per person, paid by Nol card at each entrance; a few sites list the cave at AED 10 or AED 15, but AED 5 is the price charged in 2026.

The fee was later cut, and visitors in 2026 consistently report AED 5 each. Tickets are not sold online through the park; you tap a Nol card at each attraction’s entrance. If you do not have one, buy or top one up at the machine near the Cave of Miracles, and keep a few dirhams of balance per person.

Cave of Miracles
The cave is an air-conditioned, man-made cavern with rock walls and hanging formations, where screens, projections and sound bring to life seven miracles described in the Quran. Visitors move from scene to scene in small groups, with narration available in Arabic, English and Urdu. The miracles shown include:
- Prophet Musa (Moses) parting the sea.
- Prophet Isa (Jesus) shaping a bird from clay.
- Prophet Ibrahim (Abraham) and the birds brought back to life.
- Prophet Sulaiman (Solomon) hearing the plea of an ant.
- Prophet Yunus (Jonah) surviving in the belly of the whale.
- Prophet Uzair waking after sleeping for 100 years.
The visit takes about 20 to 30 minutes. It is dimly lit with dramatic sound effects in places, which most children love but very young or nervous children may find a little intense.
The Glass House
The Glass House is a climate-controlled greenhouse holding plants mentioned in the Quran and the Sunnah, each labelled with its reference and its traditional use in food or medicine. You will find olive, fig, pomegranate, date palm, grape, ginger and many more, around 50 species in all. It takes 20 to 30 minutes and is especially beautiful after dark, when the glass building glows.
The 12 gardens and the rest of the park
Outside, the park, sometimes called the Holy Quran Park or Quran Park, covers 64 hectares of free-to-visit gardens and open space. It opened on 29 March 2019, built by Dubai Municipality, and drew 100,000 visitors in its first week:
- Twelve themed gardens planted with crops and trees mentioned in the Quran, from figs, olives and pomegranates to wheat, lentils, garlic, onions, cucumbers, watermelons and basil, with signs explaining each.
- The lake, often called Moses Lake, representing the parting of the sea, with a walkway across the water.
- The Islamic garden, desert garden and palm oasis, for slow walks and photos.
- Solar trees that light up at night and offer shade and phone charging.
- An outdoor theatre, children’s playgrounds with Islamic geometric designs, and a 3 km cycling and jogging track.
Best order and time to visit
- 4pm: arrive and walk the 12 gardens and the lake while it is still light.
- 5:30pm: the Cave of Miracles, before the evening crowd.
- 6:15pm: the Glass House as the lights come on.
- 7pm: a picnic on the lawns, or dinner nearby in Al Khawaneej.
October to April is the best season, when evenings are mild. Weekday afternoons are quietest; Friday and Saturday evenings and public holidays are busiest. In summer, go for the air-conditioned attractions only and keep garden walks for after sunset. The park is getting busier every year: Dubai Municipality reported a 47 percent rise in visits in the first half of 2026.
