Love Lake - Al Qudra

"Love Lake, located in the Al Marmoom Desert Conservation Reserve in Dubai, UAE, is a man-made oasis designed in the shape of two interconnected heart-shaped lakes. Part of the larger Qudra Lakes area, this artificial lake has become a popular attraction since its opening in November 2018. Its unique design, visible even from space, includes trees planted on the western shore that form the word "Love," while the winding pathways on the eastern shore symbolize two lovers embracing. The lake is home to various local wildlife, including fish like Japanese orange and goldfish, and a variety of birds that add to the serene atmosphere. Situated approximately 30 kilometers from central Dubai, Love Lake offers a peaceful retreat in the midst of the desert. Its remote location makes it best accessed by car, allowing visitors to experience this tranquil oasis away from the city's bustle. The lake gained widespread attention after being featured in an Instagram post by Dubai's Crown Prince, Hamdan bin Mohammed Al Maktoum, and has since become a popular spot for photography and nature lovers."

"You have some extra time and it is not too hot? You could walk to Love lake, which is a 30 minute walk. This is more of a green oasis than the Flamingo lakes. But if it is getting close to sunset I would recommend skipping this one and go to the last lake on our list ..."
