Pixar Pal-A-Round, Ferris wheel at Disney California Adventure, US
The Pixar Pal-A-Round reaches 150 feet in height and features 24 gondolas decorated with characters from different Pixar films.
The attraction opened in 2001 as the Sun Wheel before becoming Mickey's Fun Wheel in 2009 and receiving its current name in 2018.
The central Mickey Mouse face displays traditional pie-eyes from early animation, connecting modern entertainment with classic cartoon heritage.
Visitors can choose between two types of gondolas: stationary cars that remain fixed or swinging cars that slide along interior tracks.
The ride system operates below Paradise Bay water level, making it an engineering achievement in theme park construction.
