The London Eye is an observation wheel, the only one in the world. It is 135 meters (443 feet) high and provides an excellent view of the center of London. It's on the River Thames, across the water from the Parliament building.
I took a ride on the Eye, which lasted about 30 minutes. Passengers revolve slowly around the wheel in enclosed clear capsules. It's an extremely gentle ride, and it hardly seemed like I was moving. I don't have much to say about the experience, except that it was a breathtaking view, particularly at the top. Instead, I'll share some of the best pictures from my trip.
