Picture of the London Eye, the world's largest observation wheel, situated on the South Bank of the Thames.
Reaching a height of 135m (450 ft), the London Eye is London's fourth tallest structure. The wheel gives passengers a totally new perspective of some of the capital's most famous landmarks and provides a bird's-eye view usually afforded only by helicopter or aircraft.
London architects David Marks and Julia Barfield conceived and designed the London Eye to celebrate the Millennium and beyond.
