    It’s a hell of a trek to get to, you’re charged $75 for the privilege of setting foot on it, and PHOTOGRAPHY once ON the bridge is NOT PERMITTED! No thanks, I’ll spend my money elsewhere.

    That’s just insane. I’m not sure that my fear of heights wouldn’t make me jump!

    Great photo series, especially the shot from above, though what good is a walk like that if you can’t photograph? Stupid bureaucrats. But it would be my overactive mind, not the restrictions or price, that would keep me planted on real ground.
