Lingjiangyuan: Record-Breaking 158m Ledge and 365m Bridge

Lingjiangyuan Scenic Area (灵江源) is a place for real thrill seekers. Here you will find the world's longest cantilever glass ledge (Skywalk) measuring 158 meters, listed in the Guinness Book of Records! Height above the canyon — 288 meters. The park is located in Pan'an County, Zhejiang Province, 380 km from Shanghai.

In addition to the record-breaking gallery, you will find: a 365-meter glass bridge at a height of 189 m, a "sky bike" (cable attraction), an adrenaline swing, a zipline, and a ground cable car. This is not a walk but a real test of nerves! The hike up takes about 1.5–2 hours (no cable cars).
