The Icon Park complex in Orlando, formerly called I-Drive 360, is home to the famous Orlando Ferris Wheel, also known as the Orlando Eye, now renamed Icon 360 Orlando. The 120-meter-high Orlando Ferris Wheel is considered the largest on the American East Coast and provides beautiful panoramic views of the city of Orlando and the surrounding area.
Icon 360 still figures as the main attraction of Icon Park and is an Orlando tourist icon. Recently, other attractions were inaugurated and began to compete for the attention of visitors. In 2018, Icon Park inaugurated the largest StarFlyer in the world, with 137 meters of height. StarFlyer Orlando is a radical toy where participants are seated on a wheel, which rotates 360 degrees at approximately 80 km an hour. All of this at the top of the tower over 130 meters high.
In addition to StarFlyer, the opening of the world’s largest SlingShot (human slingshot) in the complex is scheduled for 2020.
