GARMISCH-PARTENKIRCHEN, GERMANY - AUGUST 19: Tourists enjoy the view from the Alpspix viewing platform on August 19, 2012 at the base of Alpspitze peak near Garmisch-Partenkirchen, Germany. The Alpspix architecture, two protruding semi-circular ramps in the shape of a x, gives unmatched views towards Zugspitze peak and the Hoellental gorge. At the end of the structure, visitors reach a glass wall and have a sensational view of the nearby cliffs, the breathtaking alpine panorama and a view almost 1000 meters (3281 feet) down into the base of the gorge.
