Shengui Glass Platform
神龟平台
Shiqian, Guizhou, China
230 feet high / 70 meters high
66 foot span / 20 meter span
2019
Shengui Glass Platform is the smaller of two glass platforms within the Xianrenjie scenic area. The much larger and higher Xianrenjie Glass Platform was briefly the world's longest cantilevered glass platform at 91.8 meters. This surpassed the Lingjiangyuan Glass Viewing Platform which had a cantilevered length of 79 meters. Also opened in 2019 is the Yanoda Glass Viewing Platform with a new record 108 meter cantilevered length. Back in 2017 the record was held by the 75 meter long Wansheng Glass Platform.
Also at the overlook is the Duxian Glass Footbridge.
The location at the edge of a mesa offers spectacular views of Shiqian City located over 500 meters lower in elevation.
Duxian and Xianrenjie are just the latest Chinese glass tourism structures to cash in on the glass bridge craze that started in 2016 with the opening of the Zhangjiajie Glass Footbridge in Hunan Province.
