ABSTRACT:
A tower is located within a tube and is arranged to displace a liquid, which preferably is water. The tower may be arranged to float in the water and its buoyancy is controlled to cause movement of the tower relative to the tube. An observation gallery may be is carried at the top of the tower for carrying passengers, being arranged to rotate relative to the tower. As the tower floats in water, and the volume of tower structure which moves out of the water is minimal, the amount of energy required to move it from the bottom of the tube to its highest position may be made relatively small.
