London Eye

The London Eye, also known as the Millennium Wheel, is one of the most iconic and recognizable landmarks in the city of London, England. This impressive observation wheel offers breathtaking panoramic views of the city and its surroundings.

The London Eye, also known as the Millennium Wheel, is a prominent landmark and an iconic tourist attraction in London.

The idea for a large observation wheel in London was conceived by husband and wife David Marks and Julia Barfield. They developed the concept for a wheel that would offer breathtaking panoramic views of the city. The project was initially called the "Millennium Wheel" because it was planned to be erected to celebrate the turn of the millennium in the year 2000

The design for the London Eye was created by architects David Marks, Julia Barfield, and the Marks Barfield Architects firm. The project's construction began in 1998. The wheel was built horizontally, with each of its 32 sealed and air-conditioned passenger capsules constructed on their sides. The sections were then floated up the River Thames on barges and assembled in an upright position

The London Eye was officially unveiled to the public on March 9, 2000, but it was not yet operational. It was erected for the celebrations surrounding the new millennium. The construction was completed in time for the grand opening, and it quickly became a symbol of the city
