Attractions

As 900 Kandi is a slowly discovered area, there are not many specific attractions apart from what nature can offer. In order to promote tourism, there is a glass bridge that gives quite a view of the entire space. It is on private property, and you have to pay a fee before walking through the bridge. It is a crowded place and probably not a good choice if you want to enjoy the beauty in peace.
