Changsha Ferris Wheel, Observation wheel in Tianxin District, Changsha, China.

The Changsha Ferris Wheel is a tall observation wheel that rises 120 meters above ground with a 99-meter diameter and offers broad views across the city. The structure holds 48 cabins distributed around its perimeter, each designed to carry multiple passengers during the rotation.

The wheel was completed and opened to the public on October 1, 2004, coinciding with China's National Day celebration. This date marked the beginning of its operation as a city landmark.

The wheel serves as a gathering place where locals and visitors share views across the city together. It has become part of Changsha's identity and how people experience their urban landscape.

The cabins are climate-controlled for comfort during your ride upward. Visit in the evening when the city lights come on and visibility is at its best.

Each cabin rotates slowly and continuously, allowing passengers to enjoy changing views across different parts of the city throughout the entire ride. This creates a complete visual experience of the cityscape without sudden movements.
