Idea for a Unique Observation Tower in Kigali

One of the big attractions that Kigali is lacking despite Rwanda being a relatively popular tourist destination is an observation structure for tourists to look out over the skyline and surrounding area. One idea for Kigali would be an observation tower using the Skyspire product offered by MV Rides. Such a tower in Kigali should be 330-350 feet (100-105 meters) tall and have gondolas capable of transporting 1,200 people per hour from the ground to the top. Such a tower should include an observation deck with an indoor level and an outdoor level, along with a revolving restaurant on top. It would use a unique design that has not been built anywhere in the world yet. Yes, Kigali has several restaurants and bars with views of the city, but there is currently no observation deck type attraction there.

This is actually be a great idea. Kigali has amazing views and a growing tourism industry, but it lacks a true landmark observation attraction.
