As Li Li stepped on the glass bridge in the Cangshan Mountain tourist resort, the sound of shattered glass caused her to scream. “I could feel my heart beating fast, and I felt dizzy,” she said.
The glass bridge is one of the highlights of the tourist area located in north China’s Shanxi Province. Regarded by local authorities as a “5D glass bridge”, it attracted quite a few visitors during the National Day holiday.
Different from typical glass bridges, this one in Cangshan Mountain can show different scenes such as “a sea of flowers” and “a blue sea”, besides glass shattering. “This bridge is 168 meters long, and the highest part of the bridge floor is 108 meters from the valley,” said a tourist staff. “It is made of hundreds of transparent glass bricks and it employs 5D technology.”
Similar bridges have popped up in China’s tourist attractions in recent years. Earlier this year, a glass bridge called “Flying Dragon in the Sky” was opened in Marenqifeng tourist area in Wuhu City, in east China’s Anhui Province. The management of the tourist area treated it as a “skyhigh” high-tech glass bridge that “combines cultural elements and a unique experience”. Two dragons made of fiber reinforced plastics stand at both ends of the bridge, and can breathe out smoke from their mouths.
Videos recording tourists walking on the glass bridges also go popular on the Internet, with many of them crying, laughing and lying on the bridges, refusing to walk on.
