The glass bridge is known as the world's first alpine cable-stayed glass-bottomed bridge above canyon.

Spanning two cliffs in the canyon area, the bridge stretch 430 meters long and 6 meters wide, hovering over a 300-meter-deep valley. The bridge deck is paved with transparent glasses and can accommodate up to 800 people at a time.
