  2. The Wiener Riesenrad, or simply Riesenrad, is a 64.75-meter-tall Ferris wheel located at the entrance to the Prater amusement park in Leopoldstadt, Austria's capital Vienna's second district. It is one of Vienna's most prominent tourist attractions, and for many people, it represents both the area and the city. It was built in 1897 and was the world's highest existing Ferris wheel from 1920 to 1985.


    The Giant Ferris Wheel began its journey with 30 vehicles. However, just 15 remained in place after the Second World War for safety concerns. This gave the citizens of Vienna the idea that the wheel had gaps in its teeth, in other words "gap-toothed". The Giant Ferris Wheel is exactly aligned with the four points of the compass and rotates precisely north-south. When it spins, it is a great help in orienting oneself.


    The Giant Ferris Wheel has witnessed numerous noteworthy events over its lifetime: Built in 1879 to commemorate the 50th anniversary of Emperor Franz Joseph's accession to the throne, it was nearly totally destroyed by fire in 1944, with just the steel structure remaining. It has become one of Vienna's most popular attractions since its re-opening in 1947. It's no surprise, given the breathtaking views from a height of 65 meters (213 feet). The "Wurstelprater", the vast carnival where the Ferris Wheel is located, is particularly popular among the Viennese as a pleasant destination for the entire family, a vivid universe of its own where everything glitters, moves, and spins.

  3. You can't miss the giant wheel at Oktoberfest if you're in Munich. It stands 50 meters tall and is one of the event's icons. Despite its occasionally sulphurous image, it is, above all, a typical Bavarian event. The Ferris wheel can accommodate up to 400 people at once, with each of the 40 gondolas accommodating 10 people. The view from the 50-meter-high Ferris wheel spans the entire Theresienwiese, from Bavaria to St. Paul's Church, behind which Munich's Old Town with the Church of Our Lady can be seen.


    On bright days, and especially strong foehn winds, you can even see the Alps to the south! Even in the dark, the journey is an unforgettable experience: The tents, booths, and attractions create a brilliant, multicolored sea of lights that can only be seen in Munich once a year. A trip to the Wiesn isn't complete unless you ride the Willenborg. The Ferris wheel is appropriate for all ages, from infants to grandparents. There is an additional parking area for pushchairs and buggies, and wheelchair users are welcome as well - just ask the staff! Even if it rains, you won't get wet: neither in the gondolas nor in the covered "station", where music keeps those waiting entertained.


    In terms of wait periods, the lines are frequently large, although it takes less time than you may anticipate. It begins in mid-September and concludes on the first Sunday of October. It has been commemorating King Louis I of Bavaria's wedding for almost two centuries. Book the best hotel, apartment, guesthouse, or hostel in Munich for the upcoming Oktoberfest, as well as the greatest activities and excursions in Munich.

  5. Marseille is France's second biggest city, yet it has nothing on Paris. These two places are like sisters who don't look similar yet are equally beautiful. Marseille is oriented toward the sea, it is quite cosmopolitan, and it is highly regarded by artists, such the singer Mika, as well as by numerous businesses, start-ups, and investors. Marseille is in the region of Provence. It is France's oldest city, having been built before Paris in the 6th century BC by Greek seafarers. What you can see from the top is... well, everything. The whole Old Port, kilometers out into the Mediterranean horizon, or back towards Notre Dame de la Garde.


    At sunset, the view is heartbreakingly gorgeous. However, one typical issue about the wheel is that it doesn't last very long, especially when compared to how much you have to pay out. The Grande Roue de Marseille has delighted families, couples, and lone travelers since it was opened to the public in 2009. The amusement ride has 42 gondola cabins and is open to the elements, so the moderate wind is rather enjoyable. The Grande-Roue de Marseille, located on the ancient harbor, was initially temporary but was so successful that the municipal officials decided to make it permanent. Come experience Marseille and book your hotel, apartment, or guesthouse at the best possible price, as well as your activities.
