After nearly two years of closure for enhancement works, Ain Dubai, the world’s tallest observation wheel, is now welcoming visitors again. Located on Bluewaters Island, this impressive 250-meter-tall landmark offers breathtaking 360-degree views of Dubai’s glittering skyline, the Arabian Gulf, and iconic landmarks.
Ain Dubai originally opened on October 21, 2021, quickly becoming a centerpiece of Dubai’s attractions. However, it temporarily closed in March 2022 for enhancements. Initially expected to reopen during Eid Al Fitr that year, its relaunch was postponed multiple times before a soft launch on December 25, 2024, confirmed its readiness to welcome visitors again.
