Standing 120 meters (390 ft) tall, the Tianjin Eye (Tiānjīn Zhīyǎn, 天津之眼) is one of the largest Ferris Wheels in China and the only structure of its kind to have been built on a bridge.

Completed in 2007, the Tianjin Eye sits astride the Yongle Bridge (Yǒnglè Qiáo, 永乐桥) over the Hai River, its 48 capsules swinging passengers up and around on a 30-minute rotation that takes in commanding views of the city below. Brightly lit at night, the Tianjin Eye has become an iconic part of the Tianjin skyline, its reflection making a dramatic, and some might say auspicious, figure in the river below.
