People Magazine had a cool article in their travel section a few weeks ago about tourist sites featuring glass. Here are the places they profiled:

-Skydeck Ledge in Chicago, IL- Look down onto the city from a glass box on the 103rd floor of the building formerly known as the Sears Tower.

-Chihuly Bridge of Glass in Tacoma, WA- Travel 500 feet from downtown to the waterfront surrounded by Dale Chihuly’s colorful glass sculptures.

-Grand Canyon Skywalk in Arizona- Walk across the glass bottom bridge that hangs 4,000 feet above the canyon to see the incredible landmark from a seemingly impossible angle.

-The Edge in Melbourne, Australia – Sit in a glass cube located in the Eureka Skydeck, 900 feet off the ground for a clear view of the city on all sides.
