SHANGRALA'S
WORLD'S
LONGEST
GLASS
BRIDGE!
If You Have Vertigo - You Best Look Away! Enjoy! :)
A terrifying glass bridge in China called the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon is the
world's longest and highest glass-bottomed walkway. It measures 530 metres in
total length and 6 metres in breadth, and is suspended about 260 metres above
the ground. The bridge spans the canyon between two mountain cliffs in
Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in China's central Hunan province. As per
the design, the bridge can carry up to 8000 visitors at a time. Steel beams
support the structural glass plates, which Tel Aviv-based Dotan used to make
the bridge as "invisible".
Israeli architect Haim Dotan was behind this ambitious venture.
"The Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge was designed to be as invisible as possible -
a white bridge disappearing into the clouds," said Dotan.
Right under visitor's feet is a dizzying drop of more than 1,000 feet, and
by week one, millions of selfies and groufies taken on the bridge flooded
social media - tourists walking on their own looking like it was no big deal,
people daring each other to cross first, trembling visitors practically crawling
across with their eyes closed, and others having to be dragged hand and foot by
their friends.
