(Redirected from Gyro tower)

An Observation Tower is a tower based attraction that lifts riders to an elevated height for observation purposes. Unlike a Drop Tower, the ascent and descent are taken at a gentle, controlled speed. Observation Towers can feature moving observation platforms with set durations or traditional elevators that allow riders to unload at an elevated platform for variable durations. Observation platforms and decks are often fully enclosed and air conditioned.
