Other developments
It seems that Dubai is augmenting its entertainment tourism and makes it easier for visitors to go around the city’s popular spots, including Dubai Parks And Resorts. Last month, Roads and Transport Authority launched a new bus route that runs directly to the attraction.
The DPR1 service will run from Ibn Battuta Metro Station to the park. The service will also pass Ibn Battuta Mall's Food Corner and The Gardens Junction at Jebel Ali before heading to the attraction.
