Giant Ferris Wheel

A ride in the Giant Ferris Wheel, one of Vienna's most famous landmarks, gives a fantastic view over the city's rooftops. Built in 1896-97 by British engineer Walter Basset, it has a diameter of 61 meters/600 feet and turns at a speed of 0.75 meters/2.5 feet per second. / Copyright: WienTourismus/MAXUM
