"The London Eye is the most popular paid tourist attraction in the UK with more than 3.5 million visitors per year. Its innovative passenger capsules are unlike those of any other observation or “Ferris” wheel. Instead of hanging from the wheel, which results in a blocked view for passengers, the capsules are attached to the outside of the wheel and electric motors turn the capsules at the same rotational speed as the main wheel. The result is a stunning view of London for 25 passengers in each capsule.
