China"s "horizontal skyscraper" attraction nears completion
It"s easy to see why "The Crystal" is one of the most highly anticipated new attractions in China.
Dubbed an engineering marvel, the highly anticipated Raffles City Chongqing project in China is nearly complete.
Devised by world-renowned architect Moshe Safdie, it measures a staggering 1.12-million-square-meters and consists of a collection of eight towers and a gigantic connecting skybridge, which is being called a "horizontal skyscraper."
The 250-meter-long skybridge, named Crystal, is said to be one of the world"s highest.
When open, it will have a viewing gallery, sky gardens, an infinity pool and various restaurants.If that wasn"t enough, the skybridge also transforms into a giant light beam at night time, illuminating the sky with a rousing light show.
