I was on the Linimo train to Ai-Chikyuhakyu Kinen Koen Station to visit Satsuki and Mei's House when I first saw this big ferris wheel. At 88 meters high, this ferris wheel is located at the Expo Memorial Park, or Moricoro Park (nicknamed after the exposition’s popular characters, Morizo and Kiccoro).

After visiting Satsuki and Mei's House, the only thing I wanted to do was ride the ferris wheel which I saw on the way to the park. The park was relatively quiet when I was there. Even though I am a bit scared of heights, I really enjoyed the 13 minute ride on the ferris wheel (¥600).

The nearest station is Koen Nishi Station, which is about 10 minutes by foot.

You can check Moricoro Park's website for further information here.
