The Ferris wheel is a large, rotating mechanical structure with cabins attached to the wheel's edge for passengers to ride in. As passengers sit in the Ferris wheel and slowly ascend, they can overlook the surrounding scenery from a height. The most common settings for Ferris wheels are amusement parks (or theme parks) and fairs, where they are considered a type of amusement ride, often jointly referred to as the "Three Treasures of the Park" along with roller coasters and carousels. However, Ferris wheels are also frequently found independently in other locations, typically serving as observation decks for events.
