It is a high rise wonder that easily rivals the likes of the London Eye.

And now, as Dubai's astounding ferris wheel, Ain Dubai, nears completion, it is certainly a sight to behold.

Incredible photos show the 360-degree attraction gradually taking shape at the £1billion Bluewater site.

Images of the progress were shared on social media on Wednesday by Dubai-based holding company, Meeras, who are managing the project.

The 668 feet tall marvel will have the capacity to carry 1,400 passengers in 48 self-contained capsules.They'll be fully air-conditioned to cope with the sweltering UAE heat, with sleek wooden floors and classy Corian benches.

Made by Hyundai , the double glazed pods will measure 100-sq-ft and provide clear views of the impressive skyline.

It is set to be the world's tallest ferris wheel.

But it won't be taller than The Shard, which stands at 310metres high - in contrast to the Dubai wheel's 210 metres.

It will, however, be able to take 1,400 passengers at any one time, whereas the London Eye can only carry around 800.

The structure is made with 9,000 tonnes of steel, which is ore than the Eiffel Tower, and will weigh more than the equivalent of eight Airbus A380s.

It was first scheduled for completion in 2015, but is now on track to be ready by 2018 - five years after the project first began.
