Operating hours and entry
The Quranic Park is open daily from 9am to 9pm and is free to enter for the public, including children who will find much to do here. However, The Cave of Miracles and Glass House have an entry charge of AED5 each, payable via the NOL card which is used to access the city's public transportation and public parks. Entry to these two experiences is free for kids below the age of six and people of determination. The best time to visit is between dawn and dusk, although throughout the Holy Month, the park opens after sunset. Visitors will need approximately one to two hours to explore the venue.
Within the park you can find some tasty snack options at One Coffee House or, why not carry some food along and have a picnic? Visitors can also head to the nearby Last Exit Al Khawaneej – a popular foodie pitstop on this side of the city. Pair your coffee from Cupagahwa with some mini doughnuts from Emirati-owned chain DOH or bite into a juicy burger from Mr Brisket or Krush Burger.
