Kanchanaburi’s all-glass skywalk ready for soft opening on Thursday

The first phase of the Kanchanaburi skywalk will be ready for public tests from Thursday now that it has been inspected by the prime minister.

Deputy government spokesperson Rachada Dhnadirek said on Sunday that a small number of people will be allowed to use the skywalk from August 18 to 26 before it is officially opened early next month.

She said Prime Minister Prayut Chan-o-cha tested the transparent glass walkway when he was in the western province on August 4.

The 12-metre-high, 150-metre-long skywalk has been built along the Kwae Yai River in Muang district and is close to the city pillar shrine.

Initially, 100 people who have made online reservations and 50 walk-ins will be allowed on the structure on weekdays. The number will be increased to 200 online reservations and 200 walk-ins after 2pm at the weekends.

 

Kanchanaburi’s all-glass skywalk ready for soft opening on Thursday Rachada said the PM has pledged full support for each province to develop its own tourist attraction because the government realises that tourism is a crucial factor for economic recovery and boosts income for provinces.
