The world’s 5 most dangerous mountain roads

Seeing the photos of the world’s 5 most dangerous mountain roads, you will also get goosebumps. Have the courage to see their photos once?

It is believed that more than 1,000 workers died during the construction of this highway which was officially opened in 1954. 

Long considered the world’s most dangerous road, the Baybert Highway was built by Russian soldiers on the banks of the mighty Sognali mountain in 1916.

Its nickname is ‘Road of Death’. It is said that usually around 300 people become victims of accidents on this road every year as a result of attempts to overtake vehicles. 

With an elevation of 4,714 meters, the Karakoram Highway is the highest paved road on the planet and is referred to as the ‘Eighth Wonder of the World’.

Situated in the Taihang Mountains of China, this tunnel road was carved from the edge of the cliff by a 13-strong team of local men between 1972 and 1977, and was done by hand.
