On October 21, 2021, the world’s giant Ferris wheel opened in the majestic city of Dubai. The construction of the Dubai Eye Ferris wheel, also called Ain Dubai, started in 2013 and was launched grandly eight years later on Bluewaters Island in Dubai, UAE. 

The giant wheel stands at a staggering height of 250m (820 feet). It is designed to accommodate as many as 1,750 passengers across 48 cabins, each fully air-conditioned. There are various types of cabins available on the Ferris wheel. There are observation cabins, social cabins and private cabins. A standard view cabin can take 40 passengers. 

In addition to its capacity, the Dubai wheel has a dynamic lighting system allowing various light effects at night. Its base serves as the entertainment zone, with a large LED screen mounted on it to provide world-class entertainment. The LED displays attached to the structure are illuminated at night and can be seen from miles away,

 What you get to experience from the giant wheel

The Dubai Eye Ferris wheel has become a significant tourist attraction in the country. It offers visitors a unique view of impressive city locations and an aerial view of famous architecture like the Burj Khalifa. Visitors can either take in two sides of Dubai – a daylight ride, with the sun’s rays glittering on skyscrapers or watch the city come alive as night falls.  

A ride on the Dubai eye wheel gives a 360-degree view of the city’s skyline. Other city views include the Arabian Gulf, Burj Al Arab, Burj Khalifa, and Palm Jumeirah. It promises an unmissable, never-seen-before view of the iconic landmarks in Dubai.

One ride takes approximately 38 minutes, with food and beverages allowed, including access to drinks from the bar. In a word, you should prepare for a long ride that aims to deliver everything it promises. 

Guests can book VIP pods to enjoy exceptional dining experiences or organize extravagant parties depending on the event. These private cabins can be customized to fit your desired purpose: a celebration, proposal, cultural festivities or even business functions. 

Undoubtedly, the Dubai eye wheel is one of the most iconic structures in the world. Being the world’s tallest Ferris wheel is no easy feat.
