The first glass skywalk bridge in Uttar Pradesh is now complete at Tulsi (Shabari) waterfall in Chitrakoot. Shaped like Lord Ram’s bow and arrow, this bridge was constructed at a cost of Rs 3.70 crore in the Kodand forest area where the falls are situated.

The Forest and Tourism Department spearheaded the construction of the Glass Skywalk Bridge, undertaken by the Pawan Sut Construction Company of Ghazipur. Formerly known as Shabri Waterfall, the site was renamed Tulsi Water Falls by the state government last year, owing to its significance as the birthplace of Goswami Tulsidas in Rajapur, along with the presence of Lord Shri Ram’s shrine.
