there are two Ferris wheels on the Prater. Both have their charm and great views.

The Flower Wheel is a 45 meter high Ferris wheel built in the Prater in 1993. In contrast to the significantly larger Ferris wheel on the Prater, it has open, rotating gondolas and its construction is similar to modern transportable Ferris wheels, such as those used at folk festivals.
