Among the scariest rides of the world there’re not only roller coasters and carousels, which can be compared to modern skyscrapers in terms of height, but also the largest Ferris wheel in the world, Singapore Flyer. Rise to great heights may cause dizziness even among the most courageous people. Fans of extreme activities will have a unique opportunity to enjoy panoramic views of Singapore. Despite the fact that the first launch of the Ferris wheel was held on 11 February 2008, the official opening took place a little later, on March 1. The diameter of the huge Ferris wheel is 150 meters and the total height is 165 meters.
Here 28 modern transparent cabins are arranged to accommodate passengers; each of them can pick up to 28 persons. All cabins are equipped with modern air conditioning systems letting feel as comfortable as possible. The giant Ferris wheel makes a full turn in 30 minutes, during which visitors can enjoy all the delights of ride at a great height. When the cabin reaches peak height, passengers can enjoy panoramic views not only of Singapore, but also of the nearby islands of Indonesia and Malaysia. The Singapore Flyer has several VIP-cabins for the most discerning travelers, where visitors are served dinner with chic specialty cocktail called Singapore Sling. Most experienced travelers recommend visiting the attraction in the evening, when the city illuminates with fabulously beautiful lights. Next - Giant Canyon Swing
