Abstract

The invention is concerned with a ferris wheel having a plurality of gondolas. Each gondola has means (11) to take pictures of the passengers that are present within the adjacent gondolas (2). The gondolas are mounted such that they can not rotate relative to the ferris wheel. Instead, the passenger floor within the gondolas can rotate, such that the floor is level at all positions along the track they follow.
