00:00Babel's swinging gardens have been a wonder of the world for thousands of years.

00:05Now their reputation is gone.

00:08Technology has gone far ahead, now instead of swinging gardens,

00:12swinging trains will be seen.

00:15In China, such a swinging train is running successfully in Wuhan.

00:20This provides an unique experience for travelers.

00:24This train running in Wuhan has been named Suspended Monorail.

00:29These two words are a combination of Suspended and Monorail.

00:32Monorail is a train that runs on a single track.

00:37Usually, railcars run on a track, which is made up of two lines.

00:42But Monorail runs on a single line.

00:47Such examples are often seen in fairs and stalls,

00:51which run on a single track full of adventure.

00:55Monorail is considered to be the best way to control traffic in fast-spreading cities.

01:01It takes up less space than a regular track and works the same way.

01:06The other name for this train is Suspended or Suspension.

01:10Suspension is a form of elevated monorail,

01:14in which the train is separated from the track,

01:18unlike a cable used in the Fizai-Tramways.

01:22These tracks are built on the existing railway tracks.

01:27Instead of the traditional Suspended Monorail running in Wuhan,

01:31it is running in a different style.

01:33We can call it upside-down in a way.

01:37Because it runs below the track instead of above it.

01:40And it feels like this train is hanging.

01:43Undoubtedly, it is a masterpiece of engineering.

01:46And it is no less than a miracle for the world.

01:48Because it is an extremely futuristic idea.

01:51Initially, the 10.5 km track of the Suspended Monorail has been operationalized.

01:57Six stations come on this journey and its route is passed through the Optics Valley of China.

02:03This is the National Innovation Demonstration Zone in Wuhan.

02:07The speed of this monorail is 60 km per hour.

02:13It is built with both passengers and tourists in mind.

02:17Neither is its speed so high that you can't enjoy the journey,

02:22nor is its speed so low that you feel bored.

02:26With a suitable speed, it offers extremely beautiful views.

02:30This monorail, consisting of two carriages, can carry 220 passengers at a time.

02:36To make the journey unforgettable, a mirror has been installed in its floor.

02:41There are also mirrors on its windows, which allow passengers to see up to 270 degrees.

02:48The Suspended Monorail runs for 12 hours a day.

02:52It runs from 8 am to 8 pm.

02:55Its most special feature is that it is completely autonomous.

02:59No human help is required to buy a ticket throughout the journey.

03:05Everything happens on its own.

03:07Its doors open automatically.

03:09It stops at the station itself.

03:11And it starts moving on its own after taking off and landing.

03:15Tickets for this monorail, which runs every 10 minutes, are also kept extremely cheap.

03:20People have also been given the facility to buy a ticket once a month

03:25and enjoy its journey as much as they want.

03:28The ticket for the entire month costs about $16,

03:32while the normal price of one ticket is only $4.

03:36To make the journey comfortable, new technology has been used in the monorail.

03:40Passengers do not feel the bumps at all.

03:44Its route has also been chosen very carefully.

03:47Optics Valley's parks, lakes, and mountains have been included in its route

03:53so that people can enjoy their journey to the fullest.

03:56Another interesting thing about the monorail is its extremely light weight.

04:01Its arches are made of light aluminum so that its weight can be reduced as much as possible.

04:07This is not only a symbol of engineering, but also a proof of China's rapid development.

04:13For now, and for more interesting videos, keep watching Daily Pakistan.
