World’s Longest and Highest Glass Bridge Opens in China. If you love the aerial view, then China’s latest glass-bottomed bridge is the perfect site you can’t miss. The structure crosses two peaks in the mountains of Zhangjiajie, inspired by the American blockbuster Avatar. It is easily called the world’s highest and longest glass-bottomed bridge.
A massive number of visitors flocked on the grand opening day of the bridge, hardly leaving any space to see a sheer drop below. The bridge spans roughly 1,400 feet across two peaks and is suspended 300 meters above a sheer drop. The structure is 19ft 8in wide and made of some 99 panels of clear glass which can carry up to 800 people at the same time.
So, it crosses a canyon that divides two mountain cliffs in Zhangjiajie Park, in China’s central Hunan province. The visitors feel awe-inspired by this bridge never afraid, perfect safe place, offering a unique experience. The glass is of robust quality, can’t even break with a hammer or drive a car on it.
Therefore, only 8,000 people each day will be allowed to cross the bridge and only 600 at any one time. However, cameras and selfie sticks are banned, and people wearing stilettos will not be allowed to walk on the bridge. A Hollywood photographer visited the area in 2008, taking images that were used for the film. So, whenever you visit China, it’s a must-visit place that will give you a unique experience of life.
