“The London Eye, or the Millennium Wheel, is the largest observation wheel in the world, built in 1999 on the south bank of the river Thames in London. Standing 135 metres high, it gives one a panoramic view of London up to 25 kilometres in all directions. The London Eye travels 26 cm per second, has 32 capsules (one for each of the city's 32 boroughs) and is the most popular paid tourist attraction in the United Kingdom with over 3 million visitors annually.”
