China has completed the construction of a 300-meter-high glass bridge connecting the two mouths
China is preparing to inaugurate a suspension bridge with the longest and tallest glass walkway in the world.
Crossing a deep ravine, though it is enough, is enough to frighten you if you have fear of height. However, that feeling will be multiplied if you cross the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon in China on a rope bridge with a walkway made of glass nearly 300 meters above the ground.
This bridge crosses two deep pools in China.
This special bridge is expected to open in late summer this year. However, this is only the first phase of the project. By June 2017, those who like strong feelings can join the "bungee jumping" sport from this bridge. That means they will jump down from the height of the bridge in a two-legged posture tied by a rope. This is an adventurous sport that gives a strong feeling and is definitely not for those "weak".
By June 2017, tourists can join the "bungee jumping" sport from this bridge.
Joe Chen, Deputy General Director of Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon tourism company told Tech Insider that the official parameters of the strap (for bungee jumping) have not been officially disclosed but according to a source it may be 152m long. If this is correct, then this can be considered a "bungee jumping" system with the longest extension cord in Asia.
This project once officially inaugurated will set many records as the tallest and longest glass bridge in the world (with a length of about 380 meters). " Bungy" jump platforms are also ranked in the highest position in the world. This information was confirmed by Haim Dotan, the architect of the bridge.
This project once officially inaugurated will set many records.
This is not the first glass bridge in China (the other two were inaugurated in 2015). Currently, the Brave Man Bridge at Shiniuzhai National Geopark in Hunan Province is the longest suspension bridge with a diameter of about 179m. Another bridge was built in Yuntai, Henan, China.
In 2015, the entrance to the bridge in Yuntai closed when some cracks in the glass were discovered.
The Zhangjiajie Bridge was originally scheduled to open in May this year but was delayed due to several reasons.
The Zhangjiajie Bridge was originally scheduled to open in May this year but eventually the time was delayed due to several reasons. According to Chen, this bridge attracted the attention of many people in the world, so the Chinese Government decided that all stages must be carefully constructed and checked before being put into use.
