See-through skywalks have taken China by storm in recent years, giving daredevils a chance to face their fears and push their adrenaline levels up – way up. But unlike most glass-bottomed bridges around the country, the breathtaking platform in Shaohua Mountain National Forest Park in northwest China’s Shaanxi Province is not built on a cliff face. Instead, it protrudes out of the mountain, winding its way to a pavilion. /Xinhua Photo
