Glass skywalk of Qingliang Valley in Miyun County

The Glass Skywalk of Qingliang Valley and the Glass Corridor cross Trees were established on the highest hill “Jiuchongtian” in the Scenic Area. The glass skywalkclings to the steep cliff at the north side of JiuchongtianMountain, like a green snake winding upon the 1,000 odd meters bluff. Rambling in the air without overshadowingunderfoot, startles would overwhelm your, which makes you waver your feet with every gingerliness by grabbing the precipice. While at the west part of JiuchongtianMountain, towering trees and lush forests undulate in green waves when the mountain wind sweeping across. This is a glass corridor for you stepping on the treetop.

Where thrills you most is in the middle of the glass corridor, with two giant glass view platforms stretching out, the cantileveredcorridor out from the cliff in the air five meters afar, so nothing can support your further climbing. Stepping on the foot of the glass just as walking on intangible air, fallinginto the abyss can occur at any time.

Apart from the sensation seeking, sceneries here are more super excellent. Overlapped mountains shrouded by the clouds and mists at distant, but clouds just enwind fingers, a fairyland cannot get much better than this.
