For the first time in Vietnam, a transparent glass elevator with a height of more than 300m conquers the top of O Quy Ho mountain. The Rong May glass bridge and elevator system of the bridge is built according to international standards to be safe in all conditions. The elevator will bring visitors closer to the clouds and immerse themselves in nature, being able to see the majestic Mount Fansipan amidst the Northwest mountains and forests. In addition, when you step out of the elevator, you will immediately approach a transparent glass bridge reaching out from the cliff 60m, with a system of glass bridges over 500m long attached to the cliff at an altitude of more than 1000m above the height of the mountain. The ravine will give visitors a heart-pounding but wonderful experience.

The Rong May glass bridge system extends 60m from the cliff. The walkway is about 5m wide. The background is made entirely of transparent tempered glass consisting of 3 layers glued to the sandstone cliffs of the Hoang Lien Son range and is 600m long. Because the bridge system is made according to international standards, it can bear the weight of nearly 3,000 people at a time. Still, to be comfortable during the tour, a maximum of 500 guests can only be allowed on one turn. When standing on the glass bridge, visitors will feel like they are floating in the depths below.

Some notes

The glass balustrade is not glazed at all, but a metal railing, the railing wall is not too high, so you need to stay calm when at a “terrible” height, avoid moving too much near the balustrade area.

We recommend using the provided foot cover to avoid scratching the glass of the bridge.
If you feel nervous, ask the staff here to accompany you to avoid panic because the Rong May Glass bridge is exceptionally high, so it will not be possible to lose your temper during the tour.

They don’t recommend staying on the bridge too late because it will be tough to move in the da. Going from this tourist area to Sapa town will also be more difficult.
