The London Eye

The 135-metre-tall structure offers enough elevation to spot most of London's major landmarks during the 30-minute rotation. The experience is highly weather-dependent, with the best visibility occurring under clear skies and sunset. While the queue generally keeps moving, visitors should expect long waits even with timed tickets. The ticket price is a frequent point of division, with some finding it steep for the duration and others considering it a fair trade for the perspective over the lively surrounding area.
