Workers have completed the installation of glass on a bridge located at Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon in Zhangjiajie city, Central China's Hunan province, according to media reports on Tuesday.
The transparent architecture, poised to become the world's highest and longest glass-bottomed bridge, spans 430 meters in lengths and six meters in width and can accommodate up to 800 people at once.
Designed by Israel-based architectural firm Haim Dotan Ltd, the bridge holds 10 world records including the world's highest bungee jump.
The bridge is expected to open this summer.
