A cable car system that smashes two Guinness World Records was opened to visitors atop a famous mountain in the northern Vietnamese province of Lao Cai on Tuesday, Tuoi Tre News reported. The Fansipan Sa Pa system will take tourists from the Muong Hoa Valley to the 3,143 meter peak of Fansipan Mountain, Indochina’s highest summit. Measuring 6,282 meters, the Fansipan Sa Pa has been recognized by the Guinness Book of World Records as the world’s longest three-rope cable car route. It also sets a record as the world’s biggest ascent between the departure and arrival, measuring at 1,410 meters. Certificates for the two Guinness World Records were handed to the system’s developer, Sun Group, during the inauguration ceremony on Tuesday. englishnews.thaipbs.or.th/content/149485

It's a shame really, another blot on the landscape for people who are too fat or lazy to walk up there and experience it

It's a shame really, another blot on the landscape for people who are too fat or lazy to walk up there and experience it I guess people made the same sort of comment about the Eiffel Tower or great wall of China when they built them Hardly a blot on the landscape....suppose your one of those people who believe wind turbines are the answer ?....now they are blots on the landscape, and we dont hear the greenies protesting about the number of birds that are shredded on an annual basis by those giant desk fans do we ?
