06 Melbourne Star, Australia

After nearly a decade of construction, retooling, and reworking, this modern marvel is one of the largest observation wheels in the world. Found in the Docklands just outside Melbourne’s city center, the Melbourne Star Ferris wheel offers fantastic views of Melbourne’s impressive skyline and cityscape. Heavily influenced by the Ferris wheels of the 19th century, Melbourne Star is, to say the least, unique. The Docklands is one of Melbourne’s fastest-growing areas with many other fabulous attractions and enticing restaurants.
