The London Eye is a giant Ferris wheel on the South Bank of the River Thames in London.The structure is 443 feet tall and the wheel has a diameter of 394 feet. When it opened to the public in 2000 it was the world’s tallest Ferris wheel. Its height was surpassed by the 525-foot Star of Nanchang in 2006, the 541-foot Singapore Flyer in 2008, and the 550-foot High Roller (Las Vegas) in 2014.
The London Eye adjoins the western end of Jubilee Gardens on the South Bank of the River Thames. It has long surpassed its intended five-year shelf life to become the most popular paid-for attraction in the UK. Standing 443 feet tall over the River Thames, each 30-minute rotation grants ever-changing, 360-degree views spanning the length and breadth of London.
