The inspiration for the Eiffel Tower. Made from wood in 1866, then rebuilt in 1976 in its current form. Despite being called the Sydney Eye it doesn't look like an eye.

Skywalk on top of the tower with full view of east and west Sydney. It takes about an hour for the tour. You will know more abt Sydney after the tour.

DO NOT turn up on the day and pay full price. Book online and save. No easy way of getting to entrance, on Level 5, other than going through Westfield Mall. Best access via Market St / Castlereagh St

Lo mas practico es comprar un pase de turista que incluya esta atracción entre otras, las vistas de ls ciudad son increíbles y se pasa un rato muy agradable en las alturas desde Sydney CBD
