The Cau Vang (Golden Bridge) is very inviting to visitors from both home and abroad thanks to its unique architecture.

“The Golden Bridge, a foot bridge near Da Nang, Viet Nam, looks like it's supported by two giant hands. Designed by a company called TA Landscape Architecture, this whimsical bridge extends about 4,600 feet (equivalent to 1,414 metres) above sea level”, Business Insider said. 

In the Insider’s list, the Golden Bridge shares the honour with other world-famous bridges like Helix (Singapore), Pont Alexandre III (France), Ponte Vecchio (Italy), Laguna Garzon (Uruguay), Glacier Skywalk (Canada), and Trift (Switzerland.

Since the Golden Bridge opened to the public in June 2018, it has goes viral on social media sites worldwide thanks to its special architecture.

Developed by the Sun Group, the 150m-long, 12.8m-wide bridge features 8 spans, which looks like a strip of silk across the sky. The bridge creates a walkway in the sky, among the foggy and fairy-like lands of the Ba Na mountain.

The Golden Bridge was named one of the world’s most striking pedestrian bridges by the UK newspaper The Guardian in August 2018. Another UK newspaper, The Independent, has listed the Golden Bridge in its top 10 list of the world’s most incredible bridges. Other major news outlets like the BBC, AFP, Reuters, and CNN have also gushed over it.
