Daikanransha, Tokyo (Japan)

 

The Daikanransha is a 115 meters (377 feet) tall ferris wheel at Palette Town on the man-made island of Odaiba, in Tokyo. When it opened in 1999, it was the world's tallest ferris wheel. It is also Asia's tenth tallest and the world's twelfth tallest wheel ever constructed. It is visible from the central urban area of Tokyo, and passengers can see the Tokyo Tower, the twin-deck Rainbow bridge, and Haneda airport, as well as central Tokyo, during their 16-minute ride. At night the wheel is brightly lit by 120,000 neon tubes programmed to display multiple patterns in over one hundred colors.
