suspended more than 1,400m above sea level, in a video created by amazing things in vietnam, the bridge appears like a golden ribbon held by two giant hands emerging from the hillside. lobelia chrysanthemums are planted along the pathway on the bridge, accenting the waving structure with a purple ‘stitching’.
