In the course of travel, we seem to often encounter the presence of the Ferris wheel. Many scenic spots will choose to build a Ferris wheel to increase their heat and attract tourists. So over the years the height of the Ferris wheel is also higher and higher, a few years ago the 160 meters of the Nanchang Star Ferris wheel also briefly became the world's highest Ferris wheel, but only in 2008 was surpassed by Singapore's Ferris wheel, and october 21, 2021 before the world's highest Ferris wheel is the United States high roller, but after October 21, 2021, the newly opened Dubai Eye won the title of the world's first, proud of the crowd.
The gold content of Dubai Eye's world number one status feels higher than other Ferris wheels that have won the world number one. Because the height of this Ferris wheel has reached 250 meters, and some super tall skyscrapers belong to the same level, and the previous world's highest Ferris wheel (the American High Roller, the Singapore Flyer, the Nanchang Star) are about 160 to 167.6 meters, while the famous London Eye is only 135 meters, the Dubai Eye is 115 meters higher than the London Eye, it is obvious that the height of the Dubai Eye has formed a fault with other Ferris wheels, and it is estimated that no other Ferris wheel can surpass it in a short period of time.
In fact, the construction plan of this Ferris wheel was proposed as early as 2013, and construction began in 2015, which was originally intended to be built in mid-2019, but later because it was found that it could be reopened in conjunction with the opening of the 2020 World Expo, the opening time was delayed to October 20, 2020, and the result was some well-known global impact, so dubai eyes finally delayed the opening of October 2021. That's why the heat of this Ferris wheel has been very high lately.
The entire Ferris wheel is made up of 48 capsules, and theoretically can carry up to 1750 passengers, as long as you sit in the capsule cabin, the scenery that this Ferris wheel can see will definitely make you feel super amazing. Because the high-rise Dubai Marina is also the Burj Al Arab, as well as the Palm Island and the Burj Khalifa can be seen. Some people may say, if I want to see the view, then it is not cooler to go to the observation deck of the Burj Khalifa? Why come here, in fact imagine that when there is only you and your loved ones in the capsule, and in the distance is the sunset and the prosperous city, this feeling is not something that the public observation deck can bring you.
And the experience of the Ferris wheel slowly rising to a height of 250 is much more exciting than appearing on a building hundreds of meters high at once and looking down. In fact, the significance of the ferris wheel construction itself is not only to use it as a tourist attraction for tourists, but also to be another world-class new landmark in Dubai. After all, Dubai people in the competition for the title of the world's first can be said to be quite rich, so many years in its territory has a lot of world-class buildings or records, so instead of tangling with the use of the Ferris wheel, it is better to feel the beautiful scenery formed by this ferris wheel and the skyline.
There may be friends will be curious, such a Ferris wheel to sit once about how much money, according to the official website data, adult ticket price is about 130 dirhams, about 225 yuan, children only need 100 dirhams, the whole process of sitting down for about 38 minutes, think carefully in fact, it is quite worth it, After all, this Ferris wheel spent 238 million euros to build, about 1.76 billion yuan, and also has a world record, Dubai itself is high in price, so this ticket price Yu Rong feels within a reasonable range, I don't know what you think?
The 250-meter Dubai Eye is actually like the birth of the Burj Khalifa, all of which have epoch-making significance in their own fields, and are far away from other competitors, I don't know if you are interested in this Ferris wheel? I hope that when the global storm has passed, we can have a chance to experience it, I am the rain melt, we will see you at the next place.
