This photo was taken in Pudong, which is Shanghai city’s newest district, filled with skyscrapers rising out of what used farming ground.

It’s called Lujiazui Pedestrian Bridge and it can cary as many as 15 people side by side. Designed for high flow pedestrian traffic, it’s equipped with multiple escalators and elevators, linking at one end to a shopping mall.
