It is closed during the summer season because it’s so hot out there and you can hardly wander around the place under the sweltering sun. It’s the winter season that’s ideal for moving outdoors in Dubai. Choosing to visit the garden after dusk is appreciable. The lighting inside throws a sparkling effect when you go on a photo shoot spree.
