hi dear brothers
i am sharing World's Most Dangerous Roads.if you have any pictures and information please share.
The North Yungas Road in Bolivia is legendary of its extreme danger killing about 100 travellers annually. The road descends from 12,000 ft(3600 m) to 1000 ft(330m) transitioning from a cool altiplano terrain to rain forest. Link and 4 more pics after the jump.
The road in Taihang mountains was built by local villagers: it took five years to finish the 1,200 metre long tunnel which is about 5 meters high and 4 meters wide. Some of the villagers died in accidents during construction; undaunted, the others continued. On May 1, 1977, the tunnel was opened to traffic. It is located in the Taihang Mountains, in the Hunan Province of China.
Stelvio Pass Road Trollstigen(Italy)
The highest paved mountain pass in the Eastern Alps --and the second highest in the Alps, after the Col de l'Iseran (2770 m)--, the Stelvio Pass Road connects the Valtellina with the upper Adige valley and Merano. It is located in the Italian Alps, near Bormio and Sulden, 75 km from Bolzano, close to Swiss border.
While it might not be as risky as other deadly routes, it's certainly breathtaking. The tour books advise that the toughest and most spectacular climbing is from the Prato side, Bormio side approach is more tame. With 48 hairpins, this road is regarded as one of the finest continuous hairpin routes in the Alps.
