“Admiring Hong Kong’s Night View from the Ferris Wheel”

On this day, I considered riding the Ferris wheel during the day, but the lines were too long. So, I decided to try it on the way back to my accommodation in the evening when the lines were shorter.

Although I rode it alone and felt a bit disappointed, the experience was unexpectedly enjoyable. They even let it rotate for three full rounds, which was quite generous. Normally, they only rotate it once, so I found myself wondering when they would stop.

The Ferris wheel near Central Hong Kong offers a great facility for enjoying the view of the sea in front of Hong Kong, making it an ideal place to ride with a partner or family.
