Welcome to the world longest glass-bottomed bridge, which sways as people walk on the glass panels! The bridge is located between two steep cliffs at the Hongyagu scenic area in China's Hebei Province. A max of 600 people can cross the 1,601 feet long bridge at any one time. Standing at 715 feet above the valley, the bridge is about the same height as a 66-story building. Visitors must climb up 2,000 stairs, to reach the bridge, but an elevator is being built to facilitate access.
This glass-bottomed pool, which is attached to the ninth story of a hotel in China, offers scenic views of the terrifying drop below and is believed to be the highest altitude pool with a glass bottom in the world. Brave bathers can take a dip in the frightening see-through pool at the Wanfu hot spring hotel in Zhangjiajie. The 2 foot deep and six and a half feet wide dipping pool hangs off the side of the nine-story steel structure of the hotel and overlooks the verdant Hunan hills.
China has recently completed the world’s highest and longest glass bridge, giving the country another thrilling and scary tourist attraction.
President Recep Tayyip Erdogan inaugurates the world's longest suspension bridge over the Dardanelles which stretches straight into north-western Turkey. The bridge cuts travel time between Asia and Europe to around six minutes. IMAGES
The world’s longest sea crossing, which connects Hong Kong, Zhuhai and Macao, has now opened to the public. The bridge spans over 55 km (34 miles) and includes 23 km of bridges, 6.7 km of tunnels, and two artificial islands. The new construction cuts the time of road travel between Hong Kong and Zhuhai from four hours to just 40 minutes. However, drivers can only access the bridge after receiving a special permit from the authorities.
