It was opened to the public inside the geological park Shiniuzhai in the Hunan Province.
As you can already imagine crossing the bridge of glass it is challenging due to the sensation of stepping over thin air. The first visitors declared that not only the view is stunning but also the structure moves easily on crossed by pedestrians. The new glass bridge replaced an old wooden walkway, having glass panels 24 millimeters thick and being 25 times stronger than traditional glass.
