Why to visit Sydney Tower Eye
Sydney Tower is one of the world's highest structures and the southern hemisphere's second tallest observation tower. The tower stands at a height of 1,014 feet and is one of the most visually appealing tourist attractions. It's also known as the Sydney Tower Eye, AMP Tower, Westfield Centre Point Tower, or Sydney Sky Tower, and it's one of the most popular tourist attractions in Sydney.
The Sydney Tower Eye is Sydney's tallest building, standing at 250 metres. It has an observation deck that offers breathtaking views of the surrounding area, including the Blue Mountains, which are 80 kilometres away! The most memorable journey to the Sydney Tower Eye observation deck is around sunset hours, when you can see the sky turn into a colourful panorama! While you're in the tower, there's also a brief 4D cinematic experience that promises to be entertaining.
Apart from the fantastic viewing deck, Sydney Tower also has a shopping area at its base, as well as 3 dimensions of dining, namely the Sydney Tower Buffet, 360 Bar and Dining, and STUDIO, the latter of which is the tallest event venue in the Southern Hemisphere. If the vistas from the Sydney Tower Eye weren't enough to captivate you, an open-air glass skywalk encircles the area, bringing you even closer to this great city's breathtaking cityscape.
The Sydney Tower is close to Sydney attractions such as Hyde Park and the Queen Victoria Building, both of which are located in the city's central business district. To get to the Sydney Tower, use Market Street from Elizabeth Street. Alternatively, you can take the T1, T2, T3, T7, and T8 trains to St James Station, which is about 100 metres from the Sydney Tower.
