Bridge Travel: Getting Funky in Langkawi

As far as funky-shaped bridges go, the Langkawi Sky Bridge takes the cake as far as we're concerned. We're not really up with the latest bridge-building technology and can't really believe that it stays up, but we still plan to try walking over it the next time we hit the north of Malaysia.

It's been open since late 2004 (so it's had plenty of chances to fall down), and hangs there some 2,200 feet above sea level. The view is, obviously, pretty spectacular, but you have to be the kind of person who can keep their eyes open while slightly petrified to be able to enjoy this view.
