Chinese Ferris Wheels

The city of Shanghai has cancelled plans to build the world's largest Ferris wheel, but another Chinese town, Jiangxi, opened a Ferris Wheel in May that it says is the tallest.

This explains all the signs around Shanghai that read, "Save Ferris."

What explains this Chinese enthusiasm for Ferris Wheels? It seems one of the more popular fortunes found in fortune cookies, reads, "What goes around comes around."

Shanghail said that before the wheel is built, it must produce and train a new breed of super-carnies.

Shanghai is still going ahead with plans to build the world's largest Elephant Ear.

Ah, the simple, peaceful Chinese, with their food, factories and Ferris Wheels... don't they know there's a war on?
