1、巅峰之行,瑞士伯尔尼高原(Peak Walk by Tissot, Bernese Oberland, Switzerland)
世界首座连接阿尔卑斯山脉两座冰峰Glacier 3000及Scex Rouge的悬索桥——巅峰之行(Peak Walk)在瑞士建成并全年开放。该桥全长107米,耗资2百万美元(约合0.12亿人民币)。从悬索桥观景台上可以观赏到著名的勃朗峰、马特洪峰、艾格尔峰和少女峰。阿尔卑斯山的冰川风光一览无遗。
In October, the world's first pedestrian suspension bridge to connect two mountain peaks opened on Glacier 3000 in Switzerland's Bernese Oberland.The 107-meter (351 feet) bridge connects View Point peak with Scex Rouge peak.Famed alpine peaks Mont Blanc, the Matterhorn, Eiger, Monch and Jungfrau can be all be seen from the bridge's observation deck.The bridge, which cost $2 million dollars to build, will stay open all year around.
2、天空桥,俄罗斯索契(SkyBridge, Sochi, Russia)
索契日前陆续建成了一些新景点,除了世界上最高的秋千和一个700米长的邮政线之外,还有这座全长439米的空中悬索桥。这座悬索桥上设有两个观景台,可以让游客欣赏到黑海的美丽景色。在悬索桥中心还设有蹦极平台,足以让寻求刺激的极限运动爱好者大呼过瘾。
The world's longest pedestrian bridge forms part of Sochi's new SkyPark attraction, which includes the world's highest swing and a 700-meter-long zip wire.The 439-meter-long bridge has two observation platforms, both offering spectacular views of the Black Sea.There's also a bungee jumping platform from the center of the structure.
3、南针峰大桥,法国勃朗峰(Aiguille du Midi Bridge, Mont Blanc massif, France)
这座铁索桥连接了南针峰的南北两面,距海平面有3842米。在这样的高度下,要想登上这座悬索桥,还需搭乘一趟世界上最高的垂直缆车。仅需20分钟,游客便可上升到2800米的高度。在悬索桥上,游客的视线可以越过国界,同时欣赏到法国、意大利和瑞士的美丽山峰。
This bridge links the north and south peaks of the Aiguille du Midi in the French Alps, and is located 3,842 meters (12,604 feet) above sea level.Getting here involves a ride on the world's highest vertical ascent cable car.From the top, visitors can see into France, Switzerland and Italy.
4、Tigbao悬索桥,菲律宾薄荷岛(Tigbao Hanging Bridge, Bohol, Philippines)
设计人员为这座凌空于河面25米金属悬索桥增添了竹子外层,使其看起来更加轻巧,或许也更加惊心。游客还可以在河边的小摊买一顶仿制帽子,体验一下当《夺宝奇兵》主角印第安纳琼斯的感觉。
This structure looks flimsier than it is -- it's actually made of metal, but a bamboo top layer was added to give it an authentic -- or, depending on your perspective, scary -- look.It hangs 25 meters (82 feet) above the river.Visitors wanting to do their best Indiana Jones impression can even buy a facsimile hat at a stall on the riverbank.
5、塔曼尼加拉国家公园悬索桥,马来西亚蒂迪旺沙山脉(Taman Negara National Park Bridge, Titiwangsa Mountains, Malaysia)
马来西亚最长也是最窄的悬索桥静静地垂悬于塔曼尼加拉国家公园的树顶之间。害怕的游客可以稍稍放心的是,工作人员在每日开放之前都会将这座530米长的桥的吊索细细检查一遍。
At 530 meters long (1,650 feet), this is Malaysia's longest suspension bridge.We have a suspicion it's the narrowest, too.It stretches across the top of the trees of Taman Negara, Malaysia's largest national park.Visitors with a fear of heights will be reassured to know that the ropes are checked every morning.
6、卡皮拉诺悬索桥,加拿大温哥华(Capilano Suspension Bridge, Vancouver, Canada)
卡皮拉诺悬索桥共有137米长,横跨于70米宽的卡皮拉诺河之上。它最初是在1889年由苏格兰工程师乔治格兰特麦凯建造,但在1956年被完全重建。它是温哥华最古老同时也最受欢迎的景点,每年吸引了约70万名游客。
The Capilano suspension bridge stretches 137 meters (450 feet) across and 70 meters (230 feet) above Vancouver's Capilano River.It was originally built by Scottish engineer George Grant Mackay in 1889, but was completely rebuilt in 1956.Today, it's Vancouver's oldest and most popular attraction, receiving more than 700,000 visitors per year.
7、Ghasa悬索桥,尼泊尔(Hanging Bridge of Ghasa, Nepal)
游客在这座悬索桥上不仅可以看到人,还可以看到骡子、山羊等动物。实际上,这座悬索桥是专门为动物所建,来缓解周边动物过路所造成的交通拥堵。现在,动物们仍然是该桥的最大“用户”。
It's not just humans who use this bridge -- donkeys, cows and goats use it, as well.In fact, it was built specifically for animals, as a solution to the congestion caused by cattle being herded up and down Ghasa's narrow roads.Today, animals remain the biggest users of the Hanging Bridge of Ghasa, prodded along by the farmers who also use it to deliver produce to local families.
8、特里夫特悬索桥,瑞士加德门(Trift Bridge, Gadmen, Switzerland)
要想到达这座足足有170米高的特里夫特悬索桥,得搭乘特里夫特冰山的垂直缆车。它是全球变暖环境下的产物——原本冰川顶部的登山小屋可以步行到达,但是,在冰川开始收缩后,这座桥成了进入的唯一途径。这座悬索桥采用了传统尼泊尔绳索桥的建造模式,是阿尔卑斯山中最长也是最高的悬索桥。
This Swiss suspension bridge, which can only be accessed via a cable car, hangs above the Trift Glacier and has a length of 170 meters (557 feet).It was built as a response to global warming -- until recently, the mountaineering hut at the top of the glacier could be reached on foot, but when the glacier started to shrink, the bridge became the only route of access.The structure is based on traditional Nepalese rope bridges and is the longest and highest in the Alps.
9、国王小径,西班牙马拉加(El Caminito Del Rey, Malaga, Spain)
步道最初是为附近Chorro瀑布和Gaitanejo瀑布处发电站的职工而修建。步道仅一米宽,旁边就是100米深的峡谷,并且仅仅经过简单翻修后就向游客开放了。即便如此,仍有不少寻求刺激的勇敢者前往。但由于两起死亡事故,国王步道正式对游客关闭。近日,该地区正在进行修复,并定于2015年向公众开放。
One of many bridges on the El Caminito Del Rey (meaning "the king's little pathway"), this cliff-hugging path in Spain was built to provide workers at the hydroelectric power plants at Chorro Falls and Gaitanejo Falls with a way to cross between them.It quickly became a tourist attraction, although it's only recently reopened after major renovations.The entire walkway is just one meter wide and rises to over 100 meters (328 feet) above the river below.
10、玛丽安桥,德国巴伐利亚(The Marienbrucke, Bavaria, Germany)
玛丽安桥距离美丽的新天鹅堡仅仅只有几米之遥。悬索桥的建造者路德维希二世国王以自己母亲——玛丽安皇后的名字为这座桥命名。悬索桥本来是由木头制成,但是路德维希二世国王为了使桥能够保存更久,更便于他欣赏城堡,便将其重修成了铁桥。
Marienbrucke (or Mary's Bridge) is located just a few meters from Bavaria's beautiful Neuschwanstein Castle and spans the Pollat Gorge.It was named after Marie of Prussia, wife of King Maximilian II and mother of King Ludwig II, who built the castle.There was already a wooden bridge spanning the gorge, but King Ludwig II wanted something more substantial from which to watch his castle's construction, so he replaced the woodenrailings with iron ones.
11、卡里克索桥,北爱尔兰安特里姆县(Carrick-a-Rede Rope Bridge, County Antrim, Northern Ireland)
这座桥的建设起因于渔民需要跨30米深、20米宽的峡谷,检查他们的鲑鱼网,但自此成为北爱尔兰最受欢迎的旅游景点。绵羊岛附近看宿舍有一个收集的照片描绘在桥上表演各种绝技的人,包括一个地方做结构中的一把椅子上倒立。
This bridge was originally constructed so that fishermen could cross the 30-meter-deep and 20-meter-wide gorge to check their salmon nets, but it's since become one of Northern Ireland's most popular tourist attractions.The nearby Sheep Island View Hostel has a collection of photographs depicting people performing various stunts on the bridge, including one local doing a handstand on a chair in the middle of the structure.
12、九重梦大吊桥,日本大分县(Kokonoe "Yume" Grand Suspension Bridge, Oita, Japan)
当时世界上最长的行人悬索桥,位于鸣子川河上空173米高处,全长390米,建于2006年。游客涌向shindonotaki观瀑布。远足之后,过桥,你可以泡泡温泉——大分县几乎拥有日本五分之一的温泉。
For now, the world's longest pedestrian suspension bridge (see the next entry) stands at 173 meters (567 feet) above the Naruko-gawa River.It's 390-meters long (1,279 feet) and was built in 2006.Visitors flock to it for the views of the Shindonotaki falls.After a hike across the bridge you can soak in the nearby hot springs -- almost a fifth of Japan's hot springs can be found in Oita Prefecture.
13、highline179,奥地利罗伊特(Highline179, Reutte, Austria)
本月,位于奥地利highline179旅游路线的世界最长的人行悬索桥即将正式开放。该桥全长403米,高出地面110米,超过日本的九重梦大吊桥。
Later this month, the world's longest pedestrian suspension bridge will officially open, connecting the Ehrenberg Castle ruins with Fort Claudia in Reutte, Austria.The bridge, which will have a length of 403 meters (1,322 feet) and a height of 110 meters (360 feet), will snatch the title from Japan's Kokonoe "Yume" Grand Suspension Bridge.The Highline179 is named after the tourist route that winds through this part of the Austrian state of Tryol.
