Designed by Israeli architect Haim Dotan, the world’s highest and longest glass bridge, the Zhangjiajie Grand Canyon Bridge, is set to open in Hunan, China this month. Touted as the next ‘Wonder of the World’ by Chinese officials, the bridge stretches more than 1,400 feet (426m) across two cliffs, is 20 feet (6m) wide, and can hold 800 people at once.
Meanwhile in Tel Aviv, a couple of gongs: Tel Aviv’s Norman Hotel was voted world’s Best Boutique Hotel by luxury American tourism magazine, Jetsetter. No prices given; and as the saying goes, if you have to ask you can't afford it.
In 2015, the most stunning restaurant on earth was apparently the Israeli designed "Pastel Brasserie and Bar", located in the Herta and Paul Amir Building. The "Pastel" won out among the 4,000 projects from 35 countries which entered the competition (in various categories). The global competition was held in China; and whither palms were greased or the eatery prize was given because of the blossoming biz romance between China and Israel, I couldn't possibly say.
