Croatia's capital Zagreb will try to emulate the success of the London Eye when it opens its latest tourist offering, the Zagreb Eye.

While not quite a ferris wheel, the attraction will offer a panoramic view of the city from a viewing deck located on the 16th floor of a city building on Ban Jelacic Square.

The deck, covering an area of 300sq m (3,229 sq ft), began admitting visitors on 13 April 2013, but will only officially open on 1 July 2013. The opening hours are between 10am and 11pm, Monday to Friday and admittance costs HRK5 (£0.57, €0,67, US$0,89) for children and HRK15 (£1,70, €2, US$2,67) for adults.
