postheadericon THE LONDON EYE


The London eye, finished in 1999 and opened to the public on March 2000. Is an extremely large passenger-carrying wheel situated on the banks of the River Thames in Central London. It heights 135 meters.
It’s one of the more important attractions of London, visited by over three million people in one year. I was the tallest wheel of the world. It’s located in the western end of the Jubilee Gardens.
The wheel carries 32 sealed. Each 10 capsule holds 25 people. It rotates at 26 cm per second, so one revolution takes 30 minutes approximate.
The rim of the London eye is supported by tie rods. The lighting for the London eye was redone with LED lighting from Color Kinetics.
