Over
Korte feiten: A slender observation tower climbs to over 300 meters, towering above the city's harbor and skyline. A revolving restaurant lets diners watch the view sweep by as they eat, and adrenaline experiences send thrill-seekers along the tower's exterior.
Hoogtepunten: Orbit 360° Dining completes a full rotation every hour, so mains arrive to a subtly different view than starters. Glass-floor panels near the edge create a stomach-flip moment, and a supervised SkyJump lets you descend along the building face while feeling the wind and hearing the city shrink below.
Insidertips
- Wear a windproof layer for the open-air walkways and strong gusts at height.
- Aim for just after opening or late afternoon to avoid tour groups and long lines.
- Stand by the glass-floor panels for dramatic downward shots of the streets far below.
- Reserve a table at the revolving restaurant if you want a sunset dinner with a guaranteed window seat.
