The Longgang National Geological Park, Chongqing, China. The stunning walkway stretches an impressive 26.64 m (87.4 ft) into thin air, offering a breathtaking vista of the landscape.Built atop a cliff edge at the dizzying altitude of 1,010 m (3,314 ft), the walkway cost the Chinese government 35 million yuan (US$5.6 million) to construct and is a full 5 m (16 ft) longer than the iconic Grand Canyon Skywalk in Arizona.

Terror-inducing walkways such as this appear to be a rising trend in China. April 2015 saw the reopening of the Tianmenshan crystal glass skywalk in Zhangjiajie, following a period of maintenance. While the mountainside path is undoubtedly a majestic piece of architecture, it’s geared solely toward the more thrill seeking, daredevil tourists among us.
