The London Eye is one of the city’s newest landmarks, but people and tourists love it. It is considered an iconic landmark along with more established landmarks. The Ferris wheel was built in 2000 to celebrate the new millennium. Today it is hard to imagine London without this spectacular attraction. The ferris wheel booths are made of glass so that daredevils who dare to ride on it have an opportunity to view the city from all sides. Visitors are entertained with a short film in 4D before they board.
