A 240-meter-long (787 feet) glass bridge with a "diamond-shaped" bar suspended in the center was unveiled at Dashbashi Canyon, located around two hours drive from capital city Tbilisi, in Southern Georgia earlier this week.
Constructed by investment group Kass Group, which operates in Israel and Georgia, the huge transparent structure, which rises to 280 meters (around 919 feet,) stretches across the natural monument, offering panoramic views of its stunning waterfalls and caves.
Made from steel and glass, it took around three years to construct..

I lived there for a while. Sly Stone and Mick Jagger came in once and got all drunk. I wanted to throw them out but folks who live in glass bars shouldn’t throw Stones.
Yeah. No.
Drunks with BED-SPINSβ¦..π΅βπ«
Well done! πππ
A beautiful place. We took the kids there when they were little. The other little kids jumping up and down in the Infinity Room was a bit much.
I wanna go back there again sometime.
Not getting me on that thing. Nope, not ever.

The canyon caused by Stacy Abrams falling into soft ground?
Having worked with a dozen Georgians, one thing they know how to do is drink the most amount of alcohol in the least amount of time.
On my list. Fist time I was suppose to visit Putin bombed them.
Am I the only one whose first thought is: “Who’s going to wash the windows?”
LOL!
I’ll get you for that.

In the 90’s I was working on a contract in Toronto for MDCAN, my sons about 8 and 12 came up to visit with me in the summer, so I took them to the CN tower, which has a glass floor that 1122 ft to the ground. When my sons saw the glass floor, they ran over and started jumping up and down on it. Canadians scattered like quail in a field. I laughed my butt off, because at least 20 people didn’t realize that they put way more stress on the floor than a 40 and 70 lb kid jumping up and down. The security guard was laughing too, I asked him how thick the glass was, he said about 4 inches (100mm). He said he had watched people stand at look at the glass for an hour before they would walk out on it.
Love that place. Crawled through it all day, and got kicked out, while still in the gift shop, about 30 minutes past closing. Pretty sure we still didn’t see everything.
LOL!
