Introduction

The Southern Star Observation Wheel has 21 viewing cabins with each cabin accommodating up to 20 people. The cabins feature intelligent air conditioning, providing a cool and comfortable ride even during hot summer days. The wheel offers unobstructed views of Melbourne, Docklands, and Port Phillip. Additionally, the wheel plans to introduce the "Observation Wheel Wedding" for couples to host their unforgettable weddings in luxurious cabins. At the base of the wheel, there is a three-story function center called "Star Building," which has an underground passage providing direct access to the observation wheel. Facilities such as cafes, souvenir shops, and retail stores are available for visitors. The "Star Hall" can accommodate more than 300 people for a cocktail party and features two private meeting rooms. In the future, the "Star Building" is expected to become a popular destination for conference tourism, and guests of the "Star Hall" can enjoy VIP treatment without queuing or purchasing additional tickets, gaining direct access to the "Southern Star Observation Wheel." Furthermore, a brand new large-scale European-style shopping and entertainment center is about to be completed in the Docklands area, connecting the "Southern Star Observation Wheel" and the Waterfront center, which will further attract tourists' attention.
