Vietnam Opens World’s Biggest Aerial Tramway

The world’s largest aerial tramway has been completed across Ha Long Bay in north Vietnam.

Built by Austrian engineer Doppelmayr/Garaventa, the 2,165m tramway is suspended from two concrete towers, the larger of which is nearly 190m high. The double-decker cabins are also the largest ever built and are able to carry 230 passengers each.

Privately financed by Vietnamese developer Sun Group Corporation, the stunning construction took around a year and a half to build. It is expected to be used by most of the 7 million visitors per year who come to the UNESCO Heritage Site made up of 1,600 islands.
