First glass bridge with 3D art above China's ‘mother river’ spotted in Ningxia

If a glass bridge isn't scary enough, how about one with 3D art that really makes it feel like you'll fall into the river? At Shapotou National Nature Reserve, this artistic bridge stands above the Yellow River, which is called China’s “mother river”. The bridge is about 10 meters above the river, and was built this year to replace the old one made from wood. The new tempered glass deck is 210 meters long and 2.6 meters wide. Every sheet of glass can reportedly bear 3 tons of weight. [Photo: VCG]
