Ferris wheel
On the roof of Miramar Entertainment Park is a 70 meters (230 ft) tall ferris wheel, third tallest in Taiwan after the 88 meters (289 ft) Sky Wheel at Janfusun Fancyworld and Sky Dream in Lihpao Land.[1] The building and wheel combined have a total overall height of 100 meters (330 ft), making it previously the highest overall in Taiwan, but now superseded by the Dream Mall ferris wheel (Kaohsiung Eye) in Kaohsiung, a smaller 50 meters (160 ft) diameter wheel on a taller building which opened in May 2007.
