Beijing Great Wheel, Coming attraction 2009
At 682 feet high, the Beijing Great Wheel will be the world's tallest observation wheel—239 feet taller than the London Eye. Rides will last about 30 minutes, and each bus-size capsule will carry up to 40 passengers, a good size for private events or parties.
The 48 capsules will remain horizontal as the wheel completes its revolution, turning slowly enough that passengers can board while the wheel's in motion. At the pinnacle of this spectacular new attraction, riders will be able to peer into the distant past: The Great Wall of China will be visible from over 40 miles away. You will see it in Beijing, China 2009 (Yahoo! Travel).
