The ravine will give visitors a heart-pounding but wonderful experience.

The Rong May glass bridge system extends 60m from the cliff. The walkway is about 5m wide. The background is made entirely of transparent tempered glass consisting of 3 layers glued to the sandstone cliffs of the Hoang Lien Son range and is 600m long. Because the bridge system is made according to international standards, it can bear the weight of nearly 3,000 people at a time. Still, to be comfortable during the tour, a maximum of 500 guests can only be allowed on one turn. When standing on the glass bridge, visitors will feel like they are floating in the depths below. In front of you is the majestic natural scenery, and feeling the rushing wind blowing, clouds rumbling, of the Four Great Peaks, a spectacular scene appears under the eyes of tourists as naturally as possible.

The feeling of both thrill and satisfaction will be a memorable experience for visitors when they have the opportunity to set foot on the Rong May glass bridge!

Some notes

The glass balustrade is not glazed at all, but a metal railing, the railing wall is not too high, so you need to stay calm when at a “terrible” height, avoid moving too much near the balustrade area.

We recommend using the provided foot cover to avoid scratching the glass of the bridge.

Visitors, when visiting the Sapa glass bridge, need to comply with the requirements.

If you feel nervous, ask the staff here to accompany you to avoid panic because the Rong May Glass bridge is exceptionally high, so it will not be possible to lose your temper during the tour.

They don’t recommend staying on the bridge too late because it will be tough to move in the da. Going from this tourist area to Sapa town will also be more difficult.
