BREATHTAKING: New Vietnam Bridge Held Up By Massive Pair Of Hands

Cau Vang or the Golden Bridge

A breathtaking bridge has been constructed in Vietnam and its incredible design has left the world in awe. 


Cau Vang, or the “Golden Bridge,” located 3,280 feet above sea level in Vietnam’s Ba Na Hills, has attracted tourists from all over because of its unique design that features two larger-than-life hands holding up a pedestrian pathway dressed in gold.
Vu Viet Anh, principal designer at TA Landscape Architecture, said the bridge was created to evoke the image of “giant hands of Gods, pulling a strip of gold out of the land,” Reuters reported.

The Ba Na Hills area saw over 2.7 million visitors last year, the report said citing the Vietnam National Administration of Tourism.

The bridge, which opened in June, is expected to bring in even more tourists to the area.

 

According to Bored Panda, the design for the bridge came from a company called TA Landscape Architecture, and while the hands look like they are carved from stone, they are actually not.

 

“We designed the skeleton of the hands and covered them with steel meshes,” a representative of the company told Bored Panda. “Then we finished with fiberglass and added the theming on it. The entire construction of the bridge took about a year.”
