Ain Dubai. World’s Highest Observation Wheel

Ain Dubai is the latest landmark to join Dubai’s long list of world record-breaking attractions, opened to the public on 21 October. Located on Bluewaters Island, the giant observation wheel stands at a staggering height of 250m making it the highest and largest of its kind in the world. The monument is an amazing feat of construction, with each leg of the wheel standing 126m high – long enough to fit 15 London buses – while the weight of the assembled hub and spindle is equivalent to four A380 aircrafts. Accessible from the island, Ain Dubai (which means Dubai Eye in Arabic) is surrounded by unforgettable social and celebratory experiences, making it a must-visit attraction for all. Situated across the water from the popular Jumeirah Beach Residences (JBR) beachfront, the giant wheel offers unrivalled 360-degree views of the urban skyline in a relaxing yet mesmerising 38-minute journey. With 48 air-conditioned passenger cabins, 1,750 visitors can take in the breathtaking experience
