London Eye

The London Eye is a giant Ferris wheel on the South Bank of the river Thames in London. It is 135 metres (443 ft) tall and has a diameter of 120 metres (394 ft). It is currently Europe's tallest Ferris wheel, and offered the highest public viewing point in London until it was superseded by the 245-metre (804 ft) observation deck on the 72nd floor of the Shard.

The Shard is visible from the Eye as it travels round through 360 degrees, as are many of London's other greatest landmarks including the Houses of Parliament, Buckingham Palace, City Hall and World War II battleship HMS Belfast, amongst many others, not least the splendid river Thames as it winds its way through the heart of the city.
