This famous road in Bolivia is notoriously called �The Road of |
|
Death |
|
because it already claimed hundreds, if not thousands, of lives. |
|
This world renowned dangerous route was carved from the side of |
|
the Cordillera Oriental Mountain |
|
chain in the 1930s. |

|
Many portions of the road are unpaved and lack guardrails, not |
|
to mention it is poorly maintained which leads to numerous fatal |
|
accidents every year. |
|
Despite the bad reputation, this road is a popular playground |
|
for cyclists and adventurers who considers the treacherous |
|
journey as an extreme-sport challenge. |
