You have to be brave to
walk across a glass bridge suspended over a deep canyon! That's why the
newly opened attraction in the Shiniuzhai National Geological Park in
China's Hunan province has been named 'Haohan Qiao', meaning 'Brave
Men's Bridge' in English.
The
bridge is 300 metres- (nearly a thousand feet) long and spans a canyon
that is 180 metres- (590 feet) deep in places. Its glass panes are 24mm-
(about an inch) thick. The bridge's designers say it can carry the
weight of 800 visitors at any given time.
China
has announced plans for another glass-bottomed suspension bridge in the
Zhangjiajie Canyon area, which is said to have inspired the scenery in
James Cameron's film Avatar.
