The garden set in the heart of Dubailand is one of Cityland‘s signature creations and was launched in the year 2013. As I walked through the garden, I was spellbound by the assortment of patterns, shapes, and designs. Each piece of work that you see in the form of designs is the result of great visualizing, foresight, and perfect execution.
