Singapore Flyer
The Singapore Flyer is 165 meters tall and 150 meters in diameter.
The ferris wheel was designed by world-renowned architect Dr. Kisho Kurokawa (Japan) and architectural firm DP Architects (Singapore). The design is notably “avant-garde” – experimental and innovative while emphasizing simplicity and harmony.
The wheel debuted on April 15, 2008, and is the 3rd highest ferris wheel in the world.
Tirana, Albania Ferris Wheel
Weiner Riesenrad
The Weiner Riesenrad is the oldest still-operating ferris wheel in the world.
It was originally constructed in 1897 to honor Emperor Franz Josef I’s 50th Jubilee. It’s located in the city’s famous amusement park, Prater, and offers unique views.
At 213-feet high, it may not be one of the tallest ferris wheels in the world, but it’s certainly one of the most historic.
