China has opened a giant floating walkway 50,000 meters long. It is located in Luodian County of southwest China's Guizhou Province.
On New Year's Day, China opened up its 50km massive floating walkway, located in Luodian County of the southwest Guizhou Province. It has the Great Wall, innumerable glass bridges and now it brags a massive floating walkway in the middle of a river that is twice the size of Manhattan. According to Business Insider, the path, which is constructed in the Hongshui River tourist resort in Luodian County, covers an area of 54,000 square meters. The walkway is adorned with tens of thousands of colorful lamps that create a stunning light show for the visitors in the evening.
Luodian County has been endorsing winter tourism as it enjoys higher average temperatures in winter compared to the other areas in the province. There are more than 60,000 tourists recorded to have gathered to the county since January 1. The massive floating walkway also has water sports facilities, amusement equipment and entertaining performances from the resort that keeps the visitors entertained. They can also try the water sports adventures available in the said resort.
In 2016, an artist fashioned a similar massive floating walkway, called The Floating Piers, at the striking Lake Iseo in Northern Italy. It was a Bulgarian artist named Christo Vladimirov Javacheff who made the Floating Piers in Italy. He was quoted saying that those who experienced The Floating Piers will have the feeling similar to that of walking on the water or perhaps at the back of a giant whale.
China has been famous lately for this kind of attractions. Last year the country flaunted to have the world's highest and longest glass bridge over a canyon in Zhangjiajie National Park. They also have a bridge that is 430-metre suspended 300m in the air. Moreover, there is the glass-bottom sightseeing platform on the highest peak of China's Shilin Gorge on the borders of Beijing.
