Agra Eye Anyone?

Not me. Quoting from the Telegraph-

More than 2.5 million tourists visited the Taj Mahal last year, but officials hope to increase the figure, and the amount of tourist income, by linking the Taj to neighbouring historic buildings and adding the Agra Eye - a sophisticated Ferris wheel modelled on the London Eye.

For the record I never went up the London Eye too in my three visits to London.

It is nothing but another of the devilish design by Indian bureaucrats. First was the Taj corridor, and now this. Just wonder why such preposterous idea only comes out during a particular government's regime. UP is a state being ruled by Bunty and Babli

Welcome Ramesh.

I read that the original one rotates very slowly - thats a bit comforting.

Lets see when these guys can get something similar here.

Oh no. That would be an eye sore if it's anywhere near the Taj.

Neither did I. Thought it a waste of time and some of the restaurants by the Thames had a great view too.
