The London Eye, also known as the Millennium Wheel, is an observation wheel in London, England. At the time of building, it was the biggest in the world, although there are now larger wheels, such as The Star of Nanchang, which was opened in May 2006. The Singapore Flyer, with a diameter 15 metres more than the London Eye, is due to open in early 2008.[1]

The London Eye has become the most popular paid visitor attraction in the UK, visited by over 3.5 million people a year.[1]

The London Eye stands 135 metres (443 ft) high on the western end of Jubilee Gardens, on the South Bank of the River Thames in London, England, between Westminster and Hungerford Bridges.
