"Why are the number of capsules on the London Eye so symbolic?
There are 32 capsules on the London Eye to represent the 32 Boroughs of London with each of them holding up to 25 people, are air-conditioned and each weigh 10-tonnes. Each of the capsules has a number from 1-12 and 14-32, with the number 13 not used as it's seen as unlucky.
The Eye's capsules rotate at 26 cm per second or about 0.9 kph / 0.6 mph. It takes 30 minutes to go around the London Eye. In 2013 one of the capsules was named the Coronation Capsule to mark the 60th anniversary of the coronation of Queen Elizabeth II."
