The Delhi Eye is a transportable Ferris wheel installation[2] at Kalindi Kunj Park in the Okhla neighbourhood of Delhi, India.[3]

The wheel has 36 air-conditioned cabins, each able to carry six passengers, from which Akshardham Temple, Humayun's Tomb, Lotus Temple, Qutb Minar and Red Fort are visible on a clear day. It was constructed by Dutch Wheels BV,[3] a division of Vekoma Rides Manufacturing, and is operated by Izara Entertainment.[1]

Conflicting reports credit the Delhi Eye with an overall height of either (approximately) 45 metres (148 ft)[2][4] or 200 feet (61 m)[1] (The Indian Express suggests both[3]), and a diameter of "slightly over 40" m (130 ft).[2]
