Seattle Great Wheel

Located on Pier 57 in Downtown Seattle, the Seattle Great Wheel is one of North America's largest Ferris wheels, standing 175 feet tall. It’s quickly become a key part of the city’s skyline and offers amazing views of the city, water and mountains from its air-conditioned gondolas.

The wheel is part of a lively waterfront area with seafood restaurants, a high-tech "flying theater," and an arcade. You can also taste traditional sourdough bread made like the old miners used to make it.

Be sure to visit the Seattle Great Wheel, especially on Friday, Saturday or Sunday nights when over 500,000 LED lights create a colorful light show. It's a fantastic way to experience Seattle’s waterfront and enjoy stunning views of the city.
