Rising 55 meters (180 feet) into the Batumi skyline, the Panoramic Wheel is more than just an amusement ride — it's a gateway to sweeping views that blend the city’s modern silhouettes with the serene backdrop of the Black Sea and surrounding mountains. Located in Miracle Park along the bustling new boulevard, this towering structure, built by Italian firm Visa International ESL, is a beloved fixture for locals and tourists alike, offering a bird’s-eye view of Batumi’s diverse landscapes.
The wheel’s 40 gondolas, each accommodating up to six passengers, complete a full rotation in about 10 minutes. As you ascend, Batumi unfolds beneath you: the intermingling of old and new districts, lush green mountains that cradle the city, and the vast expanse of the sea stretching to the horizon. There are no age restrictions — everyone is welcome to experience the city from a unique vantage point that is both thrilling and tranquil.
The best time to take this ride is at dusk when Batumi’s city lights flicker on, casting colorful reflections on the water, and the sky turns into a canvas of sunset hues. Whether you’re seeking a serene escape or a new perspective on Batumi’s vibrant streets, the Panoramic Wheel offers an unforgettable experience, elevating the cityscape from a mundane collection of buildings to a stunning, living panorama.
