Fear of heights and closed space - a very common phobia. If they also touched you, it's better not to read this article, because the conversation in it will go about the most unusual elevators of the planet.

The highest glass mountain lift.

The world's tallest free-running mountain elevator, known as the "Baylong Elevator", was installed in 2001 in the beautiful park in China (Woolingian region, Hunan province). The two-story elevator car can accommodate 50 people. It delivers visitors to the observation deck, located at an altitude of 360 m.

The complex includes 3 such elevators with a lifting capacity of 3,750 kg each. Piquancy is added by the fact that the walls of the elevator are transparent, so the strong-spirited passengers along with a small dose of adrenaline can enjoy the contemplation of the mountain landscapes that open them.

About what is happening at the time with the rest, we will not mention. It is also interesting that about a third of the elevator is inside the mountain, while the rest, most of it, is located outside.
