World’s longest glass bridge abruptly closes just two weeks after it opened
- 8 years ago
The world’s highest and longest glass-bottomed bridge opened to great fanfare on 22 August.
But just 13 days later the structure, which spans a spectacular canyon between two mountain cliffs in central Hunan province, has been forced to close.
The bridge is designed to hold up to 800 people and receive up to 8,000 visitors in a day, however demand has far outstripped capacity.
There are no reports of when the attraction will reopen.
