I grew up in the province of Cavite. When I was younger (so much younger than today... Hahaha!), we usually go to the town carnival during fiestas. I could still remember that the ferris wheel would always be the center of any carnival because of its height as it stands tall among all the carnival rides. As years go by, theme parks were built and much bigger ferris wheels were set-up to the delight of the kids and adults as well.
Do you know what is the tallest ferris wheel in the Philippines and where you can find it?

I am quite sure that this is not yet the end of it all. There would still be taller ferris wheels in the Philippines to be built sometime soon. Let's watch out for it!
