It Might Be,

the longest pedestrian bridge of its kind in the world,


but please do not put me down for a ticket! all images via Ponte 516 Arouca,

the pedestrian bridge suspended 175-feet above the rocky gorge cradling the Paiva River and opened in Portugal this week,

at 1,700 feet, it eclipses the former record-holder, the 1,621-foot Charles Kuonen Suspension Bridge in the Swiss Alps,

the steel construction is located in a five-mile stretch of the gorge known for its wooden walkways,

another one of life's little pleasures that I will happily let pass me by! I do not like heights, so much so that I have not even looked at the video, look if you dare!
