The idle Star of Nanchang

Due to the coronavirus, the Star of Nanchang was idle during our drive-by. The 160-metre in height looks spectacular with the relatively clear sky as a backdrop.

    A nice try
    RMB¥50 for a 30 mintues ride. 4-6 people for every single carriage on this Ferris Wheel. There is no light inside the carriage do please get your own torch handy if you need that.

    Poor Maintenance
    On our last day in Jiangxi, we visited the Star of Nanchang [南昌之星], the world's second tallest ferris wheel after the Singapore Flyer. It was completed in 2006 and held the record for the world's tallest ferris wheel for two years. We each paid RMB50 for the experience. The guide asked us on the way to the hotel what we felt about it. I told her it was not maintained well; the gondolas were dirty and the fans inside were thick with dust. I told her I found it hard to believe it was begun only in 2006, seemed more like 1996. Tan Chan then sighed that "maintenance" is the common sickness of all China. "維護是全國的通病," were her exact words.
