Haohan Qiao – – translated to Brave Men’s Bridge, in English – -recently opened in Shiniuzhai National Geological Park in Hunan Province (See, CNN, China opens terrifying glass-bottomed bridge in Shiniuzhai park). It is 180 meters (590 feet) high, and 984 feet in length. THE BOTTOM IS ALL GLASS!
I can’t stop looking at the photos and videos of this skyway. I find it fascinating but terrifying at the same time! I don’t say never very often, but I’m sure I could not walk all the way across it. On second thought, I know I could not walk across.
Would you like to walk on it?
Here’s a video – Enjoy!

You may have heard that one of the glass panels shattered…frightening tourists, but no injuries.
