Tianjin Eye is a 120m tall giant Ferris wheel built above the Yongle Bridge over the Hai River in Tianjin, China. It is claimed to be the only such wheel to have been constructed over a bridge.
Construction started in 2007, with completion of the main body on 18 December 2007, and the wheel opened to the public on 7 April 2008.
At the time of its completion, only the 135m London Eye, 160m Star of Nanchang, and 165m Singapore Flyer were taller.
Tianjin Eye is one of four 120 m Ferris wheels in China, the other three being Changsha Ferris Wheel (completed 2004), Suzhou Ferris Wheel (completed 2009), and Zhengzhou Ferris Wheel (completed 2003). The only Chinese Ferris wheel with a greater height is the 160m Star of Nanchang, which opened in 2006.
Tianjin Eye is electrically powered and has 48 passenger capsules, each able to carry 8 passengers, and takes 30 minutes to complete a rotation, giving a maximum capacity of 768 passengers per hour.
