THE EXPERIENCE

Discover Al Noor Island

Al Noor Island creates a garden escape within Khalid Lagoon, combining planted paths, sculpture and quiet places to sit. The crossing behind Al Noor Mosque changes the pace from the city promenade to a car-free island landscape. The gardens are as much a reason to visit as the enclosed Butterfly House.

The outdoor art installations offer a different experience after dark, when lighting changes the atmosphere. Decide which matters most before choosing entry, because Butterfly House sessions and evening garden access may follow different arrangements. A visit to the mosque is a separate activity with its own visitor rules.

  • Island gardens and walking paths
  • Sculptures and art installations
  • Butterfly House option
