3-Nothing can revive your spirits better than taking a walk in the midst of the fresh blooms at the Dubai Miracle Garden for an absolutely miraculous cost of Dh45.
4-The Global Village, true to its name converges the world in a few acres of land in Dubai and cruising along its artificial water canal with views of the pavilion is just what you might want to do. It costs only Dh50 per trip which lasts from 12 to 15 minutes.

8- Cruising along Dubai's latest attraction, the Dubai Water Canal, with a backdrop of Dubai's awe-inspiring skyline in petrol heritage abra can be an experience to remember. You can surely indulge in one for Dh25 for a whole hour.
