Chang Kong Cliff Road in Huashan

Chang Kong Cliff Road is an extremely narrow and treacherous walkway along cliffs built on Huashan mountain, a scenic mountain in China's Shaanxi Province.The precipitous Chang Kong Cliff Road on Huashan mountain was built more than 700 years ago by hermits seeking ‘immortals’ they thought were living deep in the mountains.The walkway is only a foot width wide and has been built clinging to the absolutely vertical cliff. One misstep would send pilgrims plunging thousands of feet down into the valley.These days, anyone brave enough to navigate the path does have to wear a special safety harness. [ Editor: WPY ]
