The twisted structure – eccentric at first sight is a remarkable piece of art! The Orbit is not simply a tourist attraction but also serves as a viewing platform. It overlooks the Olympic Stadium, Olympic Park and breathtaking views of the whole of London city.

The internationally renowned designer Anish Kapoor officially opened it to the public. Orbits stands 115 meter high making it the tallest sculpture in UK.

There are two observation floors in Orbit offering spectacular views. Walk in through the intimate small entrance and step in to the elevator for a 30-second ride to reach the viewing platform. Take a stroll down the 455-step spiral staircase that twists through the whole of Orbit. Don’t miss the restaurant while enjoying the city of London.

The Orbit will be closed after the games and will be re-opened in 2013.

It’s an extraordinary work of art in London! Check our cheap flights listings online.
