About
Quick facts: Soaring 150 meters high and stretching 93 meters wide, this towering structure offers breathtaking panoramic views where you can see both the city's modern skyline and the historic districts framed perfectly side by side. The sky glass bridge at the top provides a thrilling experience as you walk on transparent flooring, making you feel as if you are floating in the air high above the cityscape.
Highlights: You can walk across a 93-meter-long glass bridge that offers a thrilling view of the old city on one side and the modern skyline on the other, making you feel like you're suspended in time. At sunset, the reflective gold cladding brilliantly mirrors the changing sky hues, creating a surreal, almost magical experience that photographers chase relentlessly.
Insider tips
- Book a timed ticket online and arrive 10 minutes early to breeze through security and elevator queues.
- Head straight to the glass-floored walkway for photos, and position yourself facing the creek for contrasting old-versus-new shots.
- Wear comfortable shoes and a light layer, rooftop areas can be breezy even on hot days.
- Visit on a weekday mid-morning to avoid sunset crowds, and skip souvenir stalls near the entrance if short on time.
