The wheel stands on one of the highest points of the city, and it makes it wonderful to assess how green the center of Minsk is. But, "there is a nuance." 1. Closed cabins can become a greenhouse in warm sunny weather. 2. The Prospect building complex (next to the Circus) blocked the wonderful view from the Ferris wheel to the river and squares. 3. And I must say a special thanks to the designer for the location of the open booths. They are made according to the principle of seats in trolleys on "American" ("Russian") roller coasters, or "tower" type attractions, i.e. a row of seats with a fixed lowering handrail. That is, this row of seats is deployed only in one direction, and not towards green squares, but towards "factories": a refrigeration plant, a tool factory, and a railway station in the distance... And the whole green city center will be behind you. Therefore, we want to look at the center of Minsk. We go to a closed booth on a mild cloudy day.
A great attraction for both adults and children! I highly recommend visiting the Ferris wheel in an open booth, where you can enjoy an incredibly beautiful view of your beloved and wonderful Minsk!
The wheel that made the best impression thanks to the open booths! The ticket for the open and closed booth cost the same 4.50 BYN, I chose the open one. In my understanding, an open cabin is a cradle without glass, but it was implemented a little differently. An open cabin is not a cabin at all, but chairs with a retaining stop, like on a roller coaster. There are two queues going to the wheel, separately for the closed one and separately for the open one, but we had to wait 40 minutes, but there was almost no queue for the closed one. We were in the park during the May holidays, so there were a lot of people. There are only 4 open booths with 4 seats each. Children over the age of 12 are allowed in such booths.
A favorite attraction since childhood. It offers a beautiful view of the city. Every time you visit the park, the Ferris wheel is included in the mandatory program.
Traveling to different cities, I try to look at the city from a bird's eye view- Ferris wheels. There is a very interesting Gorky Park in Minsk with children's attractions and a wheel. There are closed and open booths, when buying a ticket you need to choose, because the entrance to them is different
It's a good attraction, a bird's-eye view , there are outdoor cabins for people who love extreme sports. The view is very good, the city is in the palm of your hand.
It's a beautiful park. I really liked everything. We went for a walk with my brother. My brother and I are absolutely thrilled. Keep it up !!! The best place to relax
It's a cool Ferris wheel, really!
A wonderful view of the city opens from the height.
It is worth noting that compared to most conventional attractions of this type, there are open booths here! This adds a bit of adrenaline and allows you to take a clearer look at the spaces opening up.
The Ferris wheel, the tallest in Minsk, offers wonderful views of the city.What cannot be captured by a glance from below, from above everything is in the palm of your hand!There are open and closed cabins👍
A fun attraction. The outdoor cabin especially has its own charm during sunset. Romantic. The only drawback is the huge queues at boarding. For those who are afraid of heights, there are enclosed booths in the open space. The cost is the same and there is no queue
The wheel is excellent, it is quite high - 54 meters. There are open booths, very interesting, this is the first time I've seen them! We took a ride in the open ones, I liked it, it's not scary, good fixation, but it takes your breath away.
Great attraction, reasonable price. However, there are also disadvantages: There is a long queue for open booths. However, this problem rather concerns all the attractions in Gorky Park. I can also note that the Ferris wheel is the tallest in Belarus!
A good park for walking along the embankment. There are many children's carousels. The Ferris wheel is lower than in Chelyuskintsev Park, the cabins are completely closed, there are two triple open seats for extreme athletes
A good place, a wonderful vacation with children, the waiting time is minimal, the staff is polite, the atmosphere is pleasant, cheerful. I recommend you to visit this place, you will not regret it!
The views from the wheel are magnificent, you can see all the main attractions, and if you take into account the relatively low price of Russian Ferris wheels, then one of the best places in Minsk
I recommend it to everyone! High-quality entertainment, affordable. A very high wheel! Great view of the city! We took a chance on an open booth! The views are indescribable!
The park is really a children's park. My daughter (2 years old) was just gushing with positive emotions. A good set of attractions for both self-use and with the participation of parents. You can park the car, although it is sometimes difficult. A very cool place for young researchers
A good attraction, the largest wheel in Belarus, the whole of Minsk is visible. It is possible with children from 0 to a closed booth. So we took our daughter for the first time. It's not loaded, you don't have to wait. There are no problems with the staff.
I would like to say thank you and note that after the previous season and my review of the cloudy glasses in the booths, everything was fixed this year and now you can look at the view of our beautiful city through transparent glasses. Therefore, now nothing prevents everyone from enjoying the truly beautiful Minsk and being sure of safety, which is given a lot, employees check how a person is strapped in and only by om you can see the city.
The wheel is located in Gorky Park. The park is good, there are many attractions. There is a place to have a delicious snack. I was with a child of 8 years old, we were satisfied.
It was really cool to ride there with my best bro) (probably 5 stars for that. Thank you for remembering Gorky Park!) And I also liked it when you could rock an open booth)
We skated in early May, I can definitely recommend it, BUT in an open cabin, there has been an entrance since the age of 12. The closed booth is stuffy and lacks the right atmosphere. The price is more than adequate, 120 rubles.
I do not recommend open booths, if you want to look at the city from a height, you will look in the opposite direction from the center, only if you tickle your nerves (no).
It's a pity it didn't work when we were still there. Otherwise, I'd love to go for a ride. Moreover, there are open chairs there, I saw this for the first time. I'll have to come to Minsk again;)
The Ferris wheel is maintained in good condition. There are enclosed booths and open seats. You can ride with small children in closed cabins. The view is not bad enough, but at the age of 18 with a big ponytail it's already a little bit wrong)
They didn't go to the Ferris wheel, the child was scared with us. But they liked everything about Gorky's spanking. There are carousels for little ones. Affordable prices. And there are more extreme carousels.Discounts for large families, you only need to have documents with you
The park is wonderful, you can walk, ride a child and take a ride yourself, there are long queues for adult attractions, by the end of the season some attractions closed earlier than the season...
Great! There are open and closed cabins. It's somehow better for me to ride indoors, this is the time. And then you drive in the open and look only in one direction, well, in three, because you can turn your head, but in the closed one you can see the whole city. That's two.
I liked everything, it was high enough, but even a 7-year-old child is not afraid in a closed booth. There are 4 outdoor cabins. The queue at the checkout is small and moving fast. The ticket price is 4.5 rubles. In Vitebsk, the wheel is much smaller and costs 6p...
Oh, that's something amazing. There is a huge wheel, there are open cabins, but there are few of them. And everyone wants to ride them, so the queue is big.
But of course, my daughter and I were scared, it was already dark, and at a height it seemed that the wheel had stopped, the whole night park was visible. Many other attractions and prices pleased.
A very beautiful view opens up a lot of buildings. A very beautiful view!!!

An excellent attraction for both children and adults, Minsk is in the palm of your hand, we regularly visit Gorky Park and Chelyuskintsev Park in the summer.
I recommend it for visiting if you plan to visit the Park of culture with children. The wheel is comfortable enough, does not creak, without extraneous sounds, there are booths closed and open platforms.
Excellent Gorky Park, the Ferris wheel is at a height, literally and figuratively. You can view Minsk from a bird's-eye view. Every Minsk resident and guest of the capital should visit at least once.
It was nice to ride this wheel, though only in an enclosed cabin. There were open cabins in the wheel, but they wouldn't let me in there. They explained that the rain had soaked the seats. I said it wasn't a problem for me, but they still wouldn't let me. What is the logic - it is not clear
We are happy to visit the park: we enjoy nature in a big city))) we get adrenaline on the rides without worrying about the safety of children and our own.
We were in September. The heat was unbearable, so it was stuffy in the booths, there are open booths, but there was a very long queue, and no one in the closed ones.
The wheel rises slowly, everything can be seen. And in the open booths, you can probably also take a sip of adrenaline😁
It is very high and you can see most of the city, but the queue for open booths is huge, especially in hot weather because it is too hot in closed ones..
