Estrella de Puebla

Opened in 2013, Puebla’s latest tourist attraction is an 80-meter-tall observation wheel, the Estrella de Puebla, or ‘Puebla Star’, which now ranks as the largest in South America and features in the Guinness World Record Book as the world’s largest transportable observation wheel. The observation wheel has 54 gondolas, each carrying up to 8 passengers and offering magnificent panoramic views of Puebla, but for the most dazzling vistas, opt for one of the 4 luxury gondola, featuring glass floors and plush leather seats. 
The Estrella de Puebla is also the dramatic centerpiece of the newly renovated Linear Park complex, which includes the Garden of Art, the Metropolitan Ecoparque and the Atoyac River Walk, as well as the planned International Baroque Museum. 

Practical Info

The Estrella de Puebla is located in the Linear Park in downtown Puebla and is open Mon-Fri 4-9.30pm, and Sat-Sun 11am-9.30pm.
