Really great views and lighting at night, you could walk to the canal nearby afterwards. But don't go too late as it might be crowded for you to get the ticket

I went during the day. There isn't much to see up there. The night view may be better I suppose. The cabin seem a bit small with 6 adults and 1 kid when I went up. Worth a visit if you have nothing much to do.

I been visiting the Tianjin Eye and i have to say, the city of Tianjin has not much to offer but the Eye is supposed to be a major attraction. Surely it is fancy placed over the water and the view can be good, but the city itself has little sites to see from there. Better to walk past and... More

The Eye is apparently the only Ferris wheel located on a bridge in the world. We visited late afternoon so managed to get some photos during the day then sunset. We had decided we wanted to ride it at night. While waiting for night to fall, we had some dinner at a local restaurant nearby. When we returned to the... More

A little expensive, and the air pollution obstructed what should have been a spectacular view. But it was still a cool experience. The cars are big with lots of viewing space. It takes about 20 minutes or more to go around once. It's unique in that it spans the river. Tianjin is not really a tourist hotbed compared to other... More

A good view from up there. The cabin is quite small. This should should in your list of places to go if you are in Tianjin.

I got here in the early after noon on a cold January day. The locals were ice fishing in the river. People were what i call chair ice skating on the river and the city streets were alive with daily activities. There is a market area close that had street venders selling goods and street food. About dark i ate... More

I did not get on the ferris wheel as the weather is too cold, it's very pretty at night, and I am lucky to see some fireworks too.
