Tianmen Mountain the way to the spiritual heaven gate and the most dangerous roads in the world

There's nothing better than the feeling of leisurely gliding through country roads, across vast fields and vast prairies, isn't there? However, not all roads in the countryside are "cute", "absence" of speeding cars, there are dangerous roads that make knuckles "white".

There are dozens of roads in the world that just looking at pictures makes drivers shiver. Some of them are built on roads, the rest are only gravel, slippery and lying on cliffs and dangerous passes. It's hard to compare these dangerous roads to anything else. The following are the most dangerous roads in the world that will make you sweat.

Zoji La, India

Zojila is known as the most dangerous pass in India. On the craggy cliffs, the 9km long rocky road connecting Ladakh and Kashmir is only gravel. This is the most dangerous and highest pass road on the Srinagar-Leh route with an altitude of 3.52km above sea level, with up to 60 points where landslides often occur. Besides, the danger of the road is increased because it is very narrow, the vehicles have to move with the livestock here.

This route is scary not only because it's narrow enough for one lane, but also because there aren't any barriers around it.

The route is the Ladakh people's gateway to communication with the rest of the world. In winter, strong winds and heavy snowfall are a nightmare for vehicles. Therefore, the Border Organization (BRO) has asked Zojila to close to tourists, only allow specialized military vehicles to circulate at this time to limit danger, and carry out maintenance work on the route. .

60 landslides occurred in 2009. Police and rescue workers had to rescue about 350 people stuck on the road due to heavy snowfall. Many sections were buried 15 to 24 meters deep in the snow. Despite the warnings, many travelers seek to conquer Zojila. This led to tragedy in 2012, when 11 tourists were killed when their car skidded off the road and fell into the abyss. For a long time, the route closed 6 months of the year due to heavy snowfall and reopened only in late spring.

When the harsh winter is over, the authorities allow visitors to continue their journey to discover the majestic beauty of the Himalayas. However, an important requirement is that visitors need to have a high concentration and confidence in the vehicle as well as the skills behind the wheel.

Dalton Highway, Alaska

The Dalton Highway, Alaska is one of the most dangerous and loneliest roads in the world. In addition, the Dalton Highway is known as a nightmare in Alaska because it stretches for about 640 km through the Yukon River and many remote forests. What makes this road even scarier is that almost 400 km there are no gas stations, restaurants, hotels or other basic services. This road also has many warning signs for slopes and avalanches.

Khardung La, India

Khardung Pass is a craggy mountain pass located in Ladakh, India. This is the highest pass in the world for backpackers to conquer by current road vehicles. With an altitude of 5,610m, Khardung Pass is always on the list of dream destinations of adventurers.

The Khardung Pass was historically an important trade route from Leh to Kashgar in Central Asia. At that time, each year about 10,000 horses and camels carrying goods circulated on this pass. Today, in the Hunder region north of the pass, visitors can still admire herds of Bactrian camels living here.

It is dangerous and somewhat scary, but when you have crossed this path, you will feel that all fear disappears and is replaced by joy and happiness when you have overcome your own fear. Moreover, your bravery is also rewarded by the breathtaking scenery on both sides of this road.

Yungas, Bolivia

The Yungas Road, Bolivia is an important route from La Paz to the Amazon jungle. According to statistics, every year, about 200 to 300 people die on this road because one side is a steep cliff and a 600m deep abyss creates a danger for this road. There are many sudden turns that no driver does not pray to God for protection when the car drives through here. Visitors to Yungas Road will not be able to stop their hearts from moving on the narrowest, most dangerous road in the world.

Past La Paz, the first stretch is 5 km long, before plunging down a steep road, each bend on the route has a unique climate pattern from humid mountainous air to high mountains. Windy roads, steep cliffs as well as rolling hillsides.

This Death Road was built in the 1930s during the Chaco War, by Paraguayan prisoners. With a vertical slope of nearly 610m, and a unique route, there is a lack of guardrails, making this road the most dangerous in the world.

After all, the fog and showers also limit visibility when traveling, the road surface is always slippery and the mountain cliffs are full of sharp cat ears. Therefore, running slowly and inching up meter by meter is considered the safest solution for drivers on this road.

In the early 1990s, the dangerous element of the road was again considered by tourists as the first choice of sightseeing in Bolivia. Especially adventurous cyclists, they choose this road of Death for downhill cycling fun.
