In October 2021, Dubai unveiled its most anticipated entertainment addition – Ain Dubai, the world’s largest and tallest observation wheel.  Located in the man-made archipelago of Bluewaters Island, Ain Dubai claims to be a premium, luxurious experience set at Dubai’s most exciting entertainment hub. The name means ‘Dubai Eye’ in Arabic, and it is a 250-meter wheel that takes roughly 38 minutes for one rotation. It obliterates the iconic UK’s London Eye by being twice its size, as well as the Singapore Flyer. Ain Dubai offers a staggering 360-degree view of the city. The scenic beauty can be witnessed from the 48 capsules on the wheel.  The wheel is built with 11,200 of steel with the hub and spindle weighing 1,805 tonnes, making it ‘equivalent to four A380 aircraft.’ Its 126m height could fit 15 London buses,  [according](https://www.visitdubai.com/en/places-to-visit/ain-dubai?DTCM-SN+%7C+India+%7C+Search+%7C+EN+%7C+Pillars+%7C+Phrase+%7C+New+User&gclid=Cj0KCQjww4OMBhCUARIsAILndv5VZXfKpr40Yb9AIeopdUQViQ8ii0RVvSkA6_g4Lz1z9oA6vAnw7VQaAp0dEALw_wcB&gclsrc=aw.ds)  to the website.  “Ain Dubai offers unique experiences catering to all audiences, including luxurious special event cabins; nightlife and party occasions; unique dining and culinary options; family-friendly cabins and customizable romantic experiences for special moments,”  [said ](https://english.alarabiya.net/life-style/travel-and-tourism/2021/10/22/Dubai-eye-world-s-tallest-observation-wheel-opens-with-lavish-firework-show) Ronald Drake, General Manager of Ain Dubai. #### A Ride on Ain Dubai The opulent 48 enclosed capsules on  [Ain Dubai ](https://www.aindubai.com/en/observation-cabins?csrt=13916986853661292345) accommodate 1,750 passengers in total or 40 passengers in each. Currently, each cabin welcomes up to 10 passengers due to COVID-19 restrictions. The air-conditioned cabins are made of glass, letting the passengers view the breath-taking Dubai skyline as well as other picturesque landmarks such as The Palm, Dubai Marina, and Burj Al Arab Jumeirah.  Three varieties of cabins are made available in Ain Dubai.
