The tower was designed by Marks Barfield Architects, the team that was responsible for the design and construction of the famous "London Eye" among London's attractions, and the cost of the project was 46 million pounds sterling.
The British Airways i360 tower, or in English British Airways i360, which the locals call the i-Sore, is a 156-meter-high tower, and it is possible to climb through a moving glass capsule that ascends visitors from the bottom to the top.
From a height of 137 meters, a stunning 360-degree view can be obtained, with a range of up to 40 km. The cities of Bexhill to the east, Chichester to the west, and Downs to the south can be seen.
The moving capsule room accommodates about 200 people, and those wishing to experience this new tourist and entertainment attraction in Brighton can purchase tickets for a 20-minute tour at 13.50 pounds for adults and 6.75 for children.
