In a bid to bring tourists back to Vietnam, the nation’s government has constructed the longest glass-bottomed bridge in the world.
The world’s highest and longest bridge with a glass bottom opened to crowds in China's Hunan Province on Saturday. The record breaking bridge is 1,400 feet long and hangs over 1,000 feet above the earth, suspended between two mountain cliffs, offering stunning views of the rivers and forests of Zhangjiajie park.
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.
Tourists who suffer from vertigo need not apply. The world's highest and longest glass-bottomed bridge opens in China's spectacular Zhangjiajie mountains -- the inspiration for American blockbuster Avatar. Some 430 metres (1,400 feet) long and suspended 300 metres above the earth, the bridge spans the canyon between two mountain cliffs in China's central Hunan province.
China has recently completed the world’s highest and longest glass bridge, giving the country another thrilling and scary tourist attraction.
