Dangerous tourism in China (11 photos)
These breathtaking pictures show tourists navigate through extremely narrow and treacherous passage along the rocks on the scenic mountains of Shaanxi Province, China.
Pass was built over 700 years ago, a hermit who lived deep in the mountains. The passage has a width of only one set his foot and was built on a completely vertical cliff. One misstep can lead to a fall from a height of several hundred meters.
Tourists climb the stairs to the narrow bridge, conquering peaks, passing through the temples, shrines, pavilions, terraces, decorated with carvings and statues. Despite the security measures: the construction of stone steps and wider tracks, deaths still occur on this pass.
