The London Eye Album
London's most visited paid attraction is the London Eye which has 3.75
million visitors a year.    It is 443' tall and was built in 1999.  Many cities
have followed building tall ferris wheels such as the Singapore Flyer and
the High Roller in Las Vegas.
The Eye from Hungerford Bridge on the
Thames River.
Approaching the Eye
Looking up from under the Eye
The Eye keeps moving and the
passengers only have seconds to
embark
There are 32 capsules each
holding 25 people
The 4 London landmarks from the
Eye: Westminster Abbey, Big Ben,
Parliament and Westminster Bridge
The Hungerford Bridge from where
the first photo was taken
The Eye moves very slowly and the
entire ride is about 30 minutes
The ticket line
At the top of the Eye
A perfect view
Our hope was for a good photo of
the 4 London landmarks
