The ferris wheel is great, it’s $8 a person and around 6 people a cart. You get three rotations, and the carts are very stable. When we went around the carts never swayed that much. Going at sunrise and sunset is a grey time, as you get a view of the skyline and the mall. Overall great experience and nothing beats the view.

This Ferris wheel takes you around 3 times, and for $8 it’s a decent price. Nice spot to take a date and enjoy some time hovering in the air. The views are not the greatest, but you do get to see around the area. It looks nice at night as well with the lights. Overall a nice one time experience.

Really beautiful shopping area and the big wheel at the center is really cool. You'll get a great view from up at the top of the wheel. We were actually there for a Zumba fundraiser for breast cancer awareness. I wish we would have more time to explore a lot of the really cool shops that they have there

Great place to enjoy spending the day outdoors! Lots of great eats, desserts, and beautiful weather. Lounging in the patio chairs and people watching is my fav while rest of family hits the shops.
