The Sun of Moscow (Russian: Солнце Москвы, romanized: Solntse Moskvy) is a panoramic wheel in VDNKh park, Moscow, Russia.
At 140 m high minus the height of the elevated platform, it became the tallest Ferris wheel in Russia and in Europe, surpassing London Eye (135 m) in raw height, while still smaller in diameter.
[2] The wheel opened on the City Day 11 September 2022, when Moscow's 875th anniversary was celebrated.
[4] There were concerns among locals about the safety, noise, and possible ecological impact of the wheel on its surroundings.
