Iyotetsu Takashimaya Kururin Ferris Wheel
Other Vehicle
A giant Ferris wheel on the roof of the Iyotetsu Takashimaya department store located on top of the Iyo Railway's Matsuyama City Station. The Ferris wheel has a 45-meter diameter and a full rotation takes about 15 minutes. At its highest point, which includes the building below it, you'll be 106 meters above sea level, almost the same level as the peak station of the Matsuyama Castle Ropeway / Lift. Thanks to the few tall buildings surrounding it, you'll be able to enjoy amazing panoramic views including Matsuyama Castle to the north, Botchan Stadium to the south, and the Seto Inland Sea out to the west. Two of the 32 gondola cars are See-Through Gondolas, entirely paneled with transparent windows including the floor, giving you the sensation of floating through the air.
