Diamond and Flower Ferris Wheel, Ferris wheel in Kasai Rinkai Park, Japan

The Diamond and Flower Ferris Wheel is a 117-meter-tall structure in Kasai Rinkai Park with 68 gondolas accommodating six passengers each and offering views across Tokyo Bay. Each cabin rotates through a full circle, providing panoramic perspectives of the surrounding landscape during the ride.

The Diamond and Flower Ferris Wheel opened on 17 March 2001. At 117 metres it was then the world's second-tallest Ferris wheel and Japan's tallest. The 120-metre Sky Dream Fukuoka surpassed it in 2002, but that wheel closed in September 2009, making the Kasai Rinkai Park wheel Japan's tallest operating Ferris wheel again until REDHORSE OSAKA WHEEL (123 m) opened on 1 July 2016.

The wheel takes its name from its nightly light shows, which form sparkling diamond and flower patterns across the spokes. Opened on 17 March 2001, it is operated by Senyo Kogyo and stands in Kasai Rinkai Park. A commemorative photo is taken before boarding and handed over in a special mount when passengers disembark.

The wheel stands in Kasai Rinkai Park, a short walk from Kasai-Rinkai-Koen Station on the JR Keiyo Line. Smoking and pets are not allowed in the cabins. A commemorative photo can be taken before boarding; the finished print, mounted on a special card, is handed over when passengers get off.

The ride completes a full rotation in about 17 minutes, allowing passengers to spot distant landmarks like Tokyo Tower and the Rainbow Bridge. On clear days, Mount Fuji becomes visible from this height.
