The Ferris wheel was originally constructed and operated in Fukuoka, Japan, before being dismantled and reassembled in Taiwan.
It is positioned at an elevation of 384 meters above sea level due to the height of the building base it is mounted upon.
The structure features a specialized LED lighting system that displays synchronized visual patterns at night.
The wheel is capable of carrying up to 360 passengers simultaneously at full capacity.
The Sky Dream Ferris Wheel is the tallest Ferris wheel in Taiwan, standing at an overall height of 120 meters. It consists of 60 passenger cabins, each equipped with air conditioning and Wi-Fi access. Located within the Lihpao Resort complex in Taichung, the structure provides views of the Taiwan Strait and the Central Mountain Range. It was relocated from its original site in Japan to its current position in Taiwan. The ride takes approximately 25 minutes to complete a full rotation. The wheel serves as a central landmark for the Houli District and the surrounding theme park grounds.
