The Tianjin Eye is a 120-meter tall giant ferries wheel built above the Yongle Bridge (formerly Chihai Bridge), over the Haihe River in Tianjin, China. It is claimed to be the only such wheel to have been constructed over a bridge in the world. It is known as an iconic part of the Tianjin skyline, its reflection making a dramatic, and some might say auspicious, figure in the river below and the wonderful and excellent design is worthy of the first in the world.
The ferris wheel can lift people 120 meters up into the air, as high as a35-storey building, and promise a grand view of around 40 square kilometers over the surrounding city. There are 48 capsules on the ferris wheel, each of them carrying up to 8 people at a time. It takes half an hour for this slow-rotating observation wheel to complete a full circle, giving a maximum capacity of 384 passengers.
The construction of the Tianjin Eye started in 2007, with completion of the main body on 18 April 2008. And on April, 2009, the wheel was opened to the public. When it was completed, only160 m (525 feet) Star of Nanchang, the 135 m (443 feet) London Eye and 165 m (541 feet) Singapore Flyer was taller than it. The diameter of it is 110 meter.
If you would like to see the night view on the ferry wheel, make sure you go on a clear night and you can see the whole city of Tianjin! It takes about 30-40 minutes to finish the ride and it is lovely. At night it all light up just, so beautiful to watch. It would be very romantic while being in the capsule of the ferries wheel and enjoying the beautiful scenery outside.
