天云渡玻璃吊桥
Yangshan, Guangdong, China
(853) feet high / (260) meters high
(1,476) foot span / (450) meter span
2020
One of the highest footbridges in the world, the Tianyundu Glass Footbridge opened in 2020 across a spectacular canyon about 2 hours drive north of Guangzhou. The deck may exceed the height of the Zhangjiajie Glass Footbridge but it is still unknown.
The asymmetrical suspension span has short towers and anchorages higher up on the slopes than the deck elevation. The exact length of the deck is unknown but probably around 450 meters.
The scenic area also has a glass cliffwalk and a mountain slide.
