Architect Mayur Kanaiya spoke highly of the Langkawi Sky Bridge, a 125 meter-long curve cable bridge atop Gunung Mat Cincang mountain in Malaysia. Visitors can enjoy a very close experience with the forest and wildlife on the curving bridge. Kanaiya said, “It’s a great example of treading lightly on the land.”
Meghalaya Tree Roots Bridge
The village of Cherrapunji in the state of Meghalaya in northeast India — known as one of the wettest places in the world — builds bridges out of tree roots. The local people learned long ago how to tame the roots of the native ficus to grow in a certain direction, using bamboo as support. Some of the bridges are more than 30 meters long and can support the weight of 50 people.

In London, the 12 meter-long Rolling Bridge curls to one side to let boats through the Grand Union Canal at Paddington Basin. Every Friday at noon, the bridge opens. A Belgian visitor said, “Its eight steel and timber hinged sections will curl up until the two ends of the bridge meet, forming an octagonal shape.”
