Malaysia’s Independence Day (Hari Kemerdekaan), the last day of August 2008 is the also the last day of Eye On Malaysia will be at Titiwangsa Lake Gardens. Next is will be in Melaka.

We were supposed to go to Dataran Merdeka, Kuala Lumpur that morning, but we have to cancel it.

So we decided to go to Titiwangsa Lake Gardens as we always talking about going to take a ride on the Eye On Malaysia and it is the last day it will be there.

I asked the security personnel there whether I can bring my child along and he said it is fine. So we decide to take the ride.

It is RM15 adult and RM8 for child (under 12 years old is FREE).

The ride is roughly around 12 minutes. It is kind of bored after a few minutes but anyway, it is a nice view up there. From below, you can still see a very good view of the surrounding (you can see it from the gallery below). It was a good experience and I would love to take a ride on it again, but maybe in Melaka after this.

Below is the picture gallery of my family at Eye On Malaysia.

Here is a short video on how it is looked like in the gondolas.

The video below have a better overall view of “Eye On Malaysia”:

Before I end the post, here are some fact that I’ve gathered about Eye On Malaysia:

  • The Eye on Malaysia is 60 metre tall portable Ferris wheel installation at Titiwangsa Lake Gardens, Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
  • The wheel comprises 42 gondolas (including 1 VIP one) and was unveiled in conjunction with Visit Malaysia Year 2007 on January 6, 2007 by Malaysian Prime Minister, Datuk Seri Abdullah Ahmad Badawi.
  • The wheel allows visitors to experience a 360-degree panoramic view of Kuala Lumpur and over 20 kilometres of its surroundings including KL Tower, Istana Budaya and Petronas Twin Towers, during a 12-minute ride.
  • It will be relocated to Malacca in November 2008.
