This bridge is located in the White Waterfall Heaven's Gate eco-tourism, resort, and adventure tourism area and is the highest and longest glass bridge in Southeast Asia. It is the second glass bridge to be developed and constructed in Vietnam, measuring 300 meters in length and 1,000 meters above the cliff face.
This bridge is probably not for the faint of heart or those afraid of heights.
Specifically, the starting point of the glass bridge is O Quy Ho Pass, connecting Sapa and Lai Chau. With its unique design, the glass bridge extends 50 meters from the cliff face, welcoming visitors to the amusement park. The glass bridge is made entirely of transparent glass; the glass floor is assembled from three layers of glass, each 2cm thick, bonded together with a special adhesive, with a total glass thickness of 7cm, all of which have undergone rigorous inspection and assessment.
It's called the Bridge of Valor because perhaps anyone brave enough to walk across the 1000-meter-high bridge to the other side deserves the title of "valor."
The glass bridge has a walkway approximately 5 meters wide and 50 meters long, extending from the elevator shaft into the sandstone cliff of the Hoang Lien Son mountain range, and 300 meters along the cliff face at an altitude of 2,200 meters above sea level. It can accommodate more than 3,000 people at the same time. When completed, the bridge will be the most sought-after landmark in Vietnam.
In particular, this glass bridge, measuring 2m x 80m, will utilize the world's most advanced 5D glass technology and a 3.2 sensor system with 30 special effects.
Before its inauguration, engineers conducted safety checks on the glass bridge by using sledgehammers to test it, and all procedures were carried out rigorously to ensure the safety of visitors. The total investment for the glass bridge at Dai Yem Waterfall is nearly 35 billion VND, and with the addition of surrounding auxiliary items, the estimated cost to complete the bridge could reach 40 billion VND.
