The world is set to welcome a new observation wheel when Ain Dubai opens for guests later this year.

The observation wheel looks to break world records, measuring 210 meters (688 feet), making it the tallest wheel of its kind on the planet. The wheel sits near Jumeirah Beach Residences beachfront, offering easy guest access.

The wheel is expected to be completed by Expo 2020 Dubai, scheduled to begin in October and extend through April 2021. In addition to offering a new and unique perspective to view the city, the wheel gives residents and visitors alike completely new views of the city’s skyline, coastline and landmarks.

Expo 2020 Dubai is Dubai’s version of a world expo, with 192 countries represented for 173 days straight. More than 200 restaurants and tons of live entertainment entertain and nourish visitors from all over the globe. The Ain Dubai gives visitors a chance to appreciate Dubai in all its glory from new perspectives.

Other additions coming to Dubai in 2020 include the opening of the Coca-Cola Arena, and the Museum of the Future. Consider booking your travel for the wheel and festival now.
