Looks like we have a Szolnok Eye, even if it is just/only a temporary thing.

This is the first time I see a Ferris wheel in Szolnok, Hungary. According to the announcement of the government, this is a temporary, special thing for the Advent, and it operates until the end of December.

The last time I saw a Ferris wheel was a few months ago in Debrecen. Either way, it requires a special kind of bravery to try this thing out. I have not tried a Ferris wheel in my life so far.

This Ferris wheel is in the central part of Szolnok, near one of the post offices. You can see the building of the post office on the photo above. It is the "Posta".

This Ferris wheel have various lights, and this is partly visible on the photos above. It has green, yellow, blue, etc. Maximum 80 people can use it at the same time, and it is go 30 meters above the ground.

Either way, I did not went closer this time, but maybe I will go closer, and take more photos about it in the upcoming days, and I will upload them in another post.

I took these photos with my smartphone (Samsung Galaxy A12), and I edited them in Snapseed (Android application).

Thank you for viewing.

Merry Christmas.

Have a nice day and have a nice weekend.
All the best. Greetings and much love from Hungary.
