In the country of Dorset there is a coastal resort town in England named Bournemouth. The Bournemouth Eye is quite a famous tourist attraction and is a must visit for people visiting the city. It is a balloon attached to a steel cable which is lifted to 500 feet and on a clear day you get to see the Fawley Power Station. This gondola carries 25 to 30 passengers in one time. It is the highest attraction in the city of Bournemouth. This tethered balloon attraction is operational from April to September. An average ride in this balloon lasts about for 12 minutes and visitors can see a view of over 20 miles. Moreover, if you want to take this ride during night you can even do so as during night the ride seems more beautiful as even the balloon is brightly illuminated. Plenty of hotel accommodation is available near Bournemouth Eye which is located within walking distance from the nearby hotels.
