Dubai is set to build the world’s largest Ferris wheel, nearly 250ft taller than the London Eye, to be completed in 2015.
Called the ‘Dubai Eye’ is set to be 690ft tall, and attract more than three million visitors a year.
The attraction is part of a one billion pound entertainment project called The Bluewaters Island, which was approved today.
The fake island will take two years to build, with the entire project set to finish in 2016.
‘The Dubai Eye will distinctively dominate the Dubai skyline,’ Abdullah Al Habbai, chairman of developers Meraas Holding, told The National.
‘This project will continue to build on the emirate’s reputation as a leader in the global entertainment and retail landscape.’
The first phase of construction will include the island itself, the Dubai Eye and entertainment and retail zones, with low-rise residential buildings set to be added by 2016.

Wow, that’s one big wheel – they plan on drawing a lot of energy to themselves.
Indeed.
“..they plan on drawing a lot of energy to themselves..” haha, very clever..:)
remember a year or two ago, a couple of blokes in oz tried to fly a light aircraft ‘through’ one?
so some people must think they are stargates. others think they are merely symbolic. others think they are a big kids wet dream.
the truth may include all these…
They always have to build things bigger and bigger to remind us just how small we are and how they are some kinda gods
