Originally erected in 2009, then disassembled due to structural problems before financial issues delayed it for several years more, the Melbourne Star ferris wheel is finally turning. Joining the London Eye and Singapore Flyer, this giant observation wheel has glass cabins that take you up 120m for 360-degree views of the city, Port Philip Bay and even further afield to Geelong and the Dandenongs. Rides last 30 minutes.
For an extra $8 you can head back for another ride at night to see the bright lights of the city.
