Mr. Phan Chi Hieu (in Hanoi) said that when he was at the foot of the bridge, he was very eager to experience. However, when he stepped on the glass bridge, he had to fight his thoughts and asked his friend to lead him over. "I am a person who is afraid of heights, when I walked a few steps I looked down. The scenery here is beautiful but I imagined what would happen if I fell down. After being moved by my friends member, I took a deep breath, regained my composure, and crossed the bridge. This was an interesting experience," said Mr. Hieu.
