Views of Greenwich as you’ve never seen it before. For the first time this summer there will be a new addition to the landscape of south-east London – an Observation Wheel that stands taller than Nelson’s Column! At 180ft (55m) from the ground visitors will take in panoramic views beyond St Paul's Cathedral and the Tower of London to the west, across the river and past Canary Wharf to the heights of Hampstead Heath, and east to the Olympic site in the Lea Valley. Thirty-six gondolas will each carry a maximum of six people taking 12-15 minutes to complete a rotation. One gondola has disabled access, all children must be accompanied by an adult and light refreshments will be available near the wheel.
The wheel is situated within the grounds of the Old Royal Naval College in front of the Pepys Building Visitor Centre and will be open to the public until Sunday 28 September.
G'luck!
