This desert city has built an indoor forest in the city, with high maintenance costs.

In Dubai, a city built on the desert, the survival cost of each tree is as high as 3,000 US dollars per year, which makes The Green Planet an unusual existence. In this place where water resources are scarce, it is possible to have such a vibrant green space, and it is also a rich country that can do it. The Green Planet is located in a landmark building behind City Walk, and it looks like an emerald inlaid in the urban jungle from a distance. When you step into the world's only indoor vertical tropical rainforest botanical garden, you will be immediately surrounded by the moist breath that comes on your face, as if you have traveled to the distant Amazon basin in an instant. This artificially created rainforest is divided into four layers, each with a unique ecosystem. The most eye-catching is the 25-meter-high artificial kapok tree in the center, which is not only the focus of vision, but also the home of many parasitic plants. As you slowly descend along the spiral ramp, you will pass through the canopy layer, the rainforest middle layer, the ground layer and the bottom layer of the rainforest water system. Every step is full of surprises, whether it is a colorful parrot or a slow-moving sloth, or those poultry leisurely walking under your feet, all make people feel the charm of nature. It is worth mentioning that the types of animals and plants here are rich and diverse, from green plants to small animals living in them, all showing the diversity and tenacity of life. For people living in cities, such experience is undoubtedly precious, it makes us realize the importance of protecting the natural environment in this rapidly developing era.
