The Eureka Tower, located in Southbank, a suburb of Melbourne, Australia, is a towering structure that stands at a height of 300 meters. It boasts 91 floors above ground and one below, making it a significant landmark in the city.
The Observation Deck, also known as Eureka Skydeck 88, occupies the entire eighty-eighth floor of the Eureka Tower. Standing at 258 meters, it is the highest public viewpoint in the southern hemisphere. The observation deck, which offers breathtaking views of the city, opened to the public on May 15, 2007.
One of the unique features of Eureka Skydeck 88 is 'The Edge', a glass cube that extends 3 meters over the edge of the building, at a height of nearly 300 meters. Initially, the glass appears opaque as you step inside and the cube begins to slide out of the building. As the cube fully extends over the edge, the glass becomes transparent, accompanied by the sound of breaking glass and machinery, providing a thrilling experience.
