What you'll see
An old-fashioned fairground at the edge of a huge park, and above it a ferris wheel with red wooden cabins that turn slowly over the rooftops.
A brief history
The wheel went up in 1897 for the emperor's golden jubilee and was rebuilt after a fire in 1945. The Prater was once an imperial hunting ground, opened to everyone in 1766.
