Chitrakoot (Uttar Pradesh): Uttar Pradesh will soon get its first-ever glass skywalk bridge, which will be set against the picturesque backdrop of Tulsi Waterfalls in the Markundi range of the Chitrakoot forest division.
Built from a fusion of glass and steel, this marvel of engineering takes the form of Lord Ram’s revered bow and arrow, thereby symbolising strength and valour.
According to reports, this bridge promises to redefine the landscape of eco-tourism in the region. This ambitious project aims to elevate the allure of Chitrakoot.
Drawing inspiration from Bihar’s renowned skywalk glass bridge in Rajgir, Uttar Pradesh’s glass skywalk is poised to captivate visitors with its blend of aesthetic charm and structural brilliance.
The bridge, said sources, will be inaugurated after the Lok Sabha polls.
Complementing the breathtaking vistas of the waterfall, the surrounding area has been transformed into a verdant oasis known as ‘Kodand Van’, which will provide visitors with a tranquil retreat amidst nature’s splendour.
Built by the esteemed Ghazipur-based Pawan Sut Construction Company, the bridge stands as a testament to collaborative effort and visionary planning.
Originally known as Shabri Waterfall, the cascading beauty that serves as the foundation for the glass skywalk was recently christened Tulsi Waterfalls by the state government.
Offering both aesthetic appeal and structural integrity, the bow-and-arrow-shaped bridge spans an impressive length of 25 m towards the abyss and boasts of a width of 35 m between its sturdy pillars. With a robust load capacity of 500 kg per square metre, the bridge ensures safety and comfort for visitors eager to embark on this thrilling adventure.
