Lisebergshjulet, Ferris wheel in Liseberg amusement park, Sweden.
Lisebergshjulet is a ferris wheel within the Liseberg amusement park that rises approximately 60 meters high with multiple passenger cabins. Each cabin holds eight people and provides wide views across Gothenburg's cityscape and the surrounding waters.
The wheel opened in 2010, introducing a modern entertainment feature to the century-old Liseberg amusement park. This addition represented a turning point for the established institution in Gothenburg's leisure landscape.
The wheel serves as a gathering place where visitors from different backgrounds come together to share views of their surroundings. Its presence has become part of how locals and tourists mark special moments in the city.
The wheel operates throughout the year, though schedules may shift during seasonal celebrations at the park. It is wise to check opening hours before visiting to avoid extended waits, particularly on busy days.
On clear days, views from the top extend all the way to the North Sea, reaching far beyond the city limits. This unexpected reach connects urban and natural landscapes in a way few visitors anticipate.
