Don’t Look Down! Dare to Walk the World’s Longest Glass Bridge?

Suspended over the famous valley of Gulongxia in Qingyuan city, Guangdong province, this is the world’s longest and widest glass bridge.

In addition to combining a glass platform, a glass walkway, and a glass cable bridge, this thrilling adventure also comes with mesmerizing experiences that include 5D breaking effects and a skywalk.

I promise this glass platform is 

    the C.R.A.Z.I.E.S.T you’ve ever experienced!!  

The longest：1,314 meters 

This glass experience adopts 3 layers of super transparent glass with a total thickness of 4.5cm.

The scenic spot adopts ultra white glass with light transmittance rate of 99.15%.

This is by far the world's thickest aisle glass - you can even see the river at the bottom of the cliff!

It takes visitors about 45 minutes to walk the whole glass from one side to the other.

The largest：Giant glass platform that looks like a UFO or, if you’re a true nerd, like the USS Enterprise.

The glass is 202 meters long and 72 meters wide.

To put this under better perspective, this is 3.5 times the size of the U bridge over the Grand Canyon in the United States!

The widest：Five people can comfortably walk side by side + "burst" effect

The bridge is 329 meters long and 6.8 meters at its widest point - just about 0.8 meters wider than the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge!

I remember back when the Zhangjiajie Glass Bridge was super popular, but now there’s a new player in town!

There are 5D sound and photoelectric effects, which can sense the shaking and sound of tourists walking on the bridge.

This is clearly not for the faint-hearted. If any of your friends are scared of heights, then they’ll definitely be petrified and won’t want to move any further.

But if you’re bod enough, you’ll feel as if you’re walking on clouds through the vast sky, almost like fairyland. It’s… soothing.

This video should give you an even better feel for it.

If you’re in search of even more thrill, then I suggest you try zip lining through the famous Mount Tai in the Gulongxia canyon!

Fly away, friend. Fly away！

This is Gulongxia's jungle leap project.

It has a vertical height of 263 meters, reaching the vertical limit for outdoor air crossing. It’s high. Very high. So my advice is that the earlier you jump, the better! Don’t think twice about it and just go for it!

If you hesitate for even one second, you won’t do it and you’ll end up regretting it for the rest of your life. But when you do jump, all your worries will somehow be swept away by the adrenaline rush and amazing feeling you’ll get. You’ll scream - in a good way! haha.

The whole experience takes less than 10 seconds, which may make you want to go at it again a second time. 

Come on… I dare you.
