WOULD YOU WALK ON THIS GLASS BRIDGE IN CHINA?? | Tianmen Mountain, Zhangjiajie
China seems to have a fascination with glass bridges in crazy locations lol. This happens to be one of the highest at 4600ft above sea level, near the top of Tianmen Mountain in Zhangjiajie. This is one of the most popular tourist attractions in the area, known also for its epic cableway that is one of the longest in the world! Let me know in the comments if you would walk on this crazy glass bridge!

Hello, I would like to recommend Huangshan Mountain in Anhui Province, China. "Huangshan Mountain" is a very magnificent and beautiful mountain, which is completely different from the mountain in Zhangjiajie. There are well-preserved ancient villages under the mountain, and it has been rated as a world natural heritage by the United Nations. I promise you will like it!

As a Chinese, Zhangjiajie-related video seen more, but never personally. I can't remember how many times I swore to my wife that I must go to Xi 'an. This year I made up my mind to go to Xi' an for a holiday with her. Zhangjiajie is also on our list.

The last 30+ years, at least most Chinese can speak or understand Mandarin Chinese. Back in the 1980s and early 1990s, many different places spoke different dialects and the people in their 40s or even 30s could hardly speak Mandarin, let alone a foreign language, English.

China is amazing
6:20 I saw a female warrior, the young lady with glasses. While supporting her elders, she kept looking under the glass bridge with a smile on her face. It was amazing!!!
I was there in the Zhangjiajie Park area two weeks ago, with my 86-year-old dad. He might be the oldest guy there then. More than a few people who marvelled at the scenery also marvelled at him walking on the mountaintops, with a cane in his hand. Great experiences. Foreigners were few and far in between, but I did cross paths with Russians, Germans and Africans. In Canada now, but planning to go back there someday and spend more time there.

It is very hard for people from Canada to imagine the scale of mass of people in any given time and in any location in China not to mention in popular travel destinations such as this national park. I am so glad that you have made your trip to this incredible scenery location. I am so amazed by the infrastructure that have been built in many of the popular scenery and hard to get to destination. Because of this, people are able to reach to and witness some of the most spectacular sceneries and landscapes that you would not be able to get to them if there is no such infrastructures built.

Good nite Alina, always feel great to watch your videos ❤❤❤
I went there with a Korean friend before pandemic, it was of the most amazing places I ever been to. Btw, I guess you missed the ancient town which is very beautiful and nice place just to chill and have a walk and there's another beautiful place with beautiful architure over there as well, forgot its name though. Btw, Zhangjiajie was the only place I got robbed, by two monekys, they even took my sunglasses and all of my snacks fruits. My friend even took a video of how one of the monkeys were eating my snacks on the edge of handrails of staricase.

Yes, with my eyes closed. I hate heights. The cable car at Banff is a good example.
The longest cable ride? That itself is worthy of the visit. It is 7.45km long.
Great stuff, Alina. Thanks. (Hello from Melbourne, Australia)
Well, that was pretty impressive the cable car, reminded me of the Maokong Gondola in Taipei which I thought was long, and it's 3 km shorter than the one here. The glass walkway reminded me of the Columbia Icefields Skywalk. So with the snow Alberta vibes keep happening. This was another impressive site on your China tour. I enjoyed this. Now take a few days off damn it, you're a human being, not a content creating machine.

The cable car was a timesaver! I can only imagine how long a hike it would’ve taken you to reach the summit. That said, I’m in the same place as you about high places and what made me less jittery about it was the beautiful views, all the attractions and it must be said the glass bridge was the highlight of the experience. Alina, now its true given your impressions of Tianmen Mountain, with the limited time you have in China, you’re probably wishing you could stay longer and properly see everything the country has to offer but that’s not possible in your current circumstances. Still, someday you’ll probably return and show us more of it. Thanks for the video! 😊

Alina, yes, I walked on that bridge. But I did not have any one to fall for, so I am still here. LOL!
Excellent footage ! By the way, glass or Silica as it is known (SiO2) in its basic chemical formula is such a diverse platform, and depending of the processes that we put it though, it could be very strong and durable indeed. For example, fiberglass is a derivative of glass which is used in boatbuilding, or Pyrex which can withstand high temperatures. Have fun!
