Double Decker Root Bridge situated in the Tyrna village is considered as an example of the achievement of bio-engineering. This is a two-tier living root bridge which is estimated to carry at least 50 or more people at a time and is over 100 feet long. It takes nearly 10 to 15 years to become fully functional, and gets stronger every day.
Considered as a feat of bio-engineering, the Double Decker Root Bridge is located at the Tyrna village. This is a two-tier living root bridge that can carry 50 or more people at a time and is over 100 feet long. While these bridges take 10 to 15 years to become fully functional, they get stronger every day. The life span of the bridges is estimated to be about 500 to 600 years after they are well formed. The Umshiang River flows beneath the living root bridges.
