A Sky-High Adventure in York’s Heart

 

Hello everyone! 🌸

York had opened its eyes in the city centre for just a short while between May and June 2025, and luckily, Sofonie Dala was there to witness it. Towering above St Sampson’s Square, the 33-metre Ferris wheel offered breathtaking views of the historic city.

With joy, Sofonie treated herself to some fried caramelized cakes before stepping onto the wheel. As it slowly rose above the rooftops, she felt as though she were on the London Eye — but with the unique charm of York unfolding beneath her. The Minster stood proudly in the distance, the streets wound like ancient ribbons, and the city revealed itself from a whole new perspective.

For Sofonie, it wasn’t just a ride. It was an unforgettable experience — a rare, fleeting chance to see York in a way very few get to. A memory to treasure forever.

Sofonie Dala’s magical ride on the York Ferris Wheel — May to June 2025

York had opened its eyes in the city centre for just a very short while – and fortunately, Sofonie Dala was lucky enough to appear there while it still stood tall. A giant Ferris wheel rose gracefully above St Sampson’s Square, offering breathtaking views across the ancient city.

With a joyful heart, Sofonie stepped into the moment, enjoying her life to the fullest. She treated herself to some delicious fried caramelized cakes, the sweet aroma filling the air as she wandered around the lively square. Rising into the sky on the Ferris wheel, she felt as though she had been transported to the magic of the London Eye — yet this time, the charm belonged to York, with its cobbled streets, historic rooftops, and the stunning Minster in view.

For Sofonie, it wasn’t just a ride — it was an unforgettable memory of seeing York from above, a rare opportunity that captured the city’s beauty from a whole new perspective. ✨
