The London Eye on a cloudy day

It was a cloudy day in London but Westminster Bridge was crowded. With the beautiful light lanterns on the Bridge, I tried to make a combination picture with the London Eye. It would have been a lot better if the sun was participating but the clouds were mastering the sky. The London Eye or the Millennium Wheel is the tallest Ferris wheel of Europe. It is 135 meters high and is located alongside the river Thames near Westminster Bridge. This major London attraction holds 32 cabins with a capacity of 25 people. It's super impressive and gives visitors spectacular views of the city and the Houses of Parliament.

Het was een bewolkte dag in Londen maar Westminster Bridge was toch vol toeristen. Met de mooie licht lantaarns op de brug, wou ik een poging wagen een combinatie foto te maken met de Londen Eye. Het zou veel beter geweest zijn als de zon een beetje had meegespeeld maar de wolken waren Heer en Meester in de lucht. De Londen Eye of het Millennium Wheel is het hoogste reuzenrad van Europa. Het is 135 meter hoog, heeft 32 gondels, met elk een capaciteit van 25 bezoekers. Deze top attractie ligt naast Westminster Bridge, is ongelooflijk indrukwekkend en geeft zijn bezoekers spectaculaire vergezichten over de stad en het parlement.
