Ain Dubai has finally reopened.

The world’s largest observation wheel has been closed for more than two years for maintenance but is open to the public once more.

The iconic Dubai landmark had a soft launch reopening on Wednesday December 25 and has officially reopened on Thursday December 26.

Standing at 250m high, the world’s largest observation wheel looks out over JBR, Dubai Marina.
