Opening Time: 10:00 Am – 6:00 Pm (Fri-Thu)
The Green Planet, Dubai
The Green Planet is a “bio-dome” (indoor zoo and garden) in the City walk area of Dubai, United arab emirates. It has over 3,000 plants and animals in an artificial tropical rainforest including birds, reptiles, and fish. They are kept in open environments, but may not be touched.
The Green Planet indoor ecosystem was opened in 2016, with 3,000 plants and animals. The attraction was created by Meraas. The bio-dome is cube-shaped and was built as an expansion to CityWalk on Al Wasl Road. It is 60,000 square feet in area and the building’s exterior is divided into two parts diagonally. One part is cylindrical with glass, while the other is covered with small circular apertures. At the center of the bio-dome, there is an 82-foot (25-meter) tall tree with an artificial trunk. A small bridge connects to the tree, which can only hold up to four people at a time. There is also an artificial waterfall. Animals on display include sloths, flying foxes, Seba bats, anaconda snakes, and a bearcat. It is possible for visitors to camp overnight at The Green Planet.
