Bajrang Setu is a glass-floored suspension bridge near the historic Laxman Jhula in Rishikesh, Uttarakhand, India. The bridge features a broad walkway, steel railings, glass panels and long vertical suspension cables. A tall tower at the far end displays an orange image of Hanuman, while visitors, pilgrims and local residents walk in both directions. People carry bags and backpacks as they cross the bridge above the Ganga River. Green hills and buildings across Rishikesh form the background beneath a clear blue sky. The footage captures the bridge’s modern design and its role as a prominent crossing in this Himalayan pilgrimage town.
