The London Eye is the symbol of Europe. This 443 feet tall Ferris Wheel dominates the skyline of London since March 2000. Therefore, we call a Millenium Wheel as well. Each capsule symbolises 32 boroughs of London. The first cabin starts with number one and ends in 33. One missing? As you guess, that’s number 13.
