点评:The worlds 2nd largest ferris wheel? Definitely a trip worth taking, if for no other reason than to say you did it. After riding this my kid needed to know about the biggest one in the world, which we googled, and turns out its been closed for several years. So functionally - at this time - this is the biggest running ferris wheel in the world. Which a 7-year old loves telling people lol.
I will say - its a little overpriced, search discount sites before buying tickets (vegas.com saved me the price of an entire ticket). I had seen pictures online before going that made it look like the cabins had couches in them - but in reality the seating is little hard plastic benches. Not as comfy as I had anticipated. The view was fun, and it was not at all crowded during the day beginning of April. I think we had 4 other people in with us - total of 6, lots of space between us. Easy to stand/walk and take pictures without strangers being in them.
I have a little fear of heights - and regular ferris wheels are a no-go for me. But the ride on this is smoother than an elevator. You can't really feel that your moving at all. And once you hit the top and get the great view....its such a long ride, you even get a little bored. Because of that I probably wouldn't take a kiddo on it who is younger than mine (she's a fairly patient 7-year old and even she was like...ok, I'm done about 20 mins in).
翻译:世界第二大摩天轮?绝对值得一去,就算只是为了体验一下也值。坐完这个摩天轮后,我的孩子很想知道世界上最大的摩天轮是什么样的,我们上网查了一下,结果发现它已经关闭好几年了。所以,就目前而言,这才是世界上最大的仍在运营的摩天轮。我家七岁的孩子可喜欢跟别人炫耀这个了,哈哈。
不过,我要说的是,它的价格有点偏高,买票前最好先在折扣网站上找找(vegas.com 帮我省了一张票的钱)。去之前我在网上看到一些照片,照片里看起来好像座舱里有沙发——但实际上座位是硬塑料长凳。没有我想象中那么舒服。风景不错,而且四月初白天人也不多。我们当时和另外四个人一起,一共六个人,彼此之间空间很宽敞。站着/走动拍照都很方便,不用担心会碰到陌生人。
我有点恐高,所以普通的摩天轮我肯定坐不了。但这个摩天轮比电梯还平稳,几乎感觉不到自己在移动。而且一旦到达顶端,欣赏到绝美的景色……不过,因为行程太长,甚至会有点无聊。所以,我可能不会带比我家孩子小的孩子去坐(我家孩子7岁,挺有耐心的,但即使是她,坐了大概20分钟后也觉得……好了,我不想坐了)。
