Daikanransha, Ferris wheel in Aomi district, Tokyo, Japan
The Daikanransha Ferris wheel reaches a height of 115 meters with 64 gondolas, including 4 transparent ones offering views of Tokyo Bay.
The structure opened in 1999 as the largest Ferris wheel globally, maintaining this status until the London Eye began operations the following year.
The illumination patterns change according to Japanese seasons, representing spring, summer, autumn, and winter through different light displays.
Visitors can access the Ferris wheel via Yurikamome line to Aomi Station or Rinkai line to Tokyo Teleport Station, both within walking distance.
After its closure in 2022, several gondolas found new purposes at Kashimayari Ski Resort in Nagano and Nasu Highland Park in Tochigi.
