The 14 most dangerous roads in the world that make you scared

Today we want to bring to your attention the rating of the most terrible and life-threatening roads in the world. All of them are completely different: some are laid in the rocks above the cliffs, others frame the mountains, some rise above the water, and one stretches right through the clouds. But they have something in common - even the most terrifying attractions fade in front of these roads. Believe me, after a trip to any of them, the roller coaster will seem to you a mere trifle!

Guoliang Tunnel, China

In the 70s, residents of local settlements themselves cut this tunnel into the rock with the help of improvised tools. Its width is only about 4 meters and a length of 1 km.

Meklong Rail Market, Thailand

The path of this train runs right through the malls. It moves at a speed of 15 km / h, so sellers have to quickly clean up their layouts when a beep sounds.

Yungas Road, Bolivia

An incredibly narrow and winding road connects the two cities of La Paz and Koroyko. Driving along it, you will go down from a height of 3,300 meters to 360 meters above sea level.

Highway Air, Australia

This, at first glance, the ideal road is fraught with insidious danger. The fact is that the landscapes around are so monotonous that drivers often just fall asleep, making a journey of 1660 km along this highway.

The Devil's Nose Railway, Ecuador

This eerie railway with an eloquent name was laid at an altitude of 800 m above a cliff, and that’s it.

Railway bridge Pamban, India

This bridge connects the mainland of India with the island of the same name. In the 60s, it was even destroyed by the strongest winds, which represent the greatest danger to trains passing through it.

Karakoram Highway, Pakistan - China

Not only is this 1,300 km long highway located at an altitude of 4,600 m and the highest international road in the world, in the summer there are still monsoon rains that erode the road and turn it into a deadly attraction.

Passage du Gua, France

During high tides, this road, connecting France with the island of Noirmoutier, goes 4 meters under water. You can drive on it only twice a day.

Leh Manal Highway, India

In short, this is a terribly narrow road at an altitude of 4 to 5 km, passing through several high mountain passes.

Road on Tianmen Mountain, China

An 11-kilometer road leading to 99 bends and sharp turns leads to a Buddhist temple located on the top of Tianmen Mountain, the distance between which is sometimes less than 200 m.

Road through the Uyuni salt flats, Bolivia

The road running through the most famous salt marsh on the planet is located at an altitude of 3,650 meters above sea level. There is no mobile connection, and the temperature at night can drop to −30 ° C.

Road through Skippers Canyon, New Zealand

Local car rentals do not provide insurance for those who are going to go this way. Daredevils are waiting for numerous pits and cliffs, steep descents, sudden turns, suspension bridges and strong narrowing of the road.

James W. Dalton Highway, Alaska, USA

If you are planning to drive along this 666-kilometer highway, only 175 km of which is covered with asphalt, the police will carefully check you and your car for everything you need to survive. After all, on the way you will meet only 3 settlements, 3 gas stations and 1 medical center.
