China is reaching for the stars with the opening of what it says it the world's tallest Ferris wheel in the country's south.
The 525-foot-high Star of Nanchang opened in early May in a riverside park in Jiangxi province.
The wheel is a full 82 feet taller than the London Eye on the banks of the River Thames in London which, according to the Guinness Book of Records, is the current record-holder.
The ride is lit up with fluorescent red and blue lights. A full rotation of the wheel takes about 30 minutes.
