Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge

The Zhangjiajie Glass Footpath is a skywalk bridge above the Wulingyuan region in Zhangjiajie, Hunan. The bridge, which was designed as a tourist attraction, has a glass bottom and is transparent. When it first opened, it was the world's longest and highest glass-bottomed bridge. The bridge, was opened to the public on August 20, 2016, is 430 meters (1,410 feet) long and 6 meters (20 feet) wide, with a height of roughly 300 meters (980 feet). In Zhangjiajie National Forest Park in Hunan province's northwest, the bridge spans a gorge between two mountain cliffs. It can accommodate up to 800 people at a time. Haim Dotan, an Israeli architect, designed the bridge.


Engineers built the bridge by erecting four support pillars on the canyon cliffs' margins. A metal structure supports more than 120 glass panes on the bridge. Each of these panels is a three-layered tempered glass slab with a thickness of 5.1 centimetres (2 in). The bridge has three long swings connecting to the underside. A 285-meter (935-foot) bungee leap is also available, which is considered the world's tallest bungee jump.


The bridge, according to the Bridge Management Committee, has established eleven world records during its design and construction. A glass bridge in the Hongyagu Scenic Area, Hebei, now holds the record for longest glass bridge.
