The road is an indispensable thing in people's life, especially when traveling, it is always inevitable to rush on the road.
Various countries have also designed many unique highways, which are either steep, winding, winding, steep, or beautiful, in short, each with its own characteristics. Here are some of the most shocking roads in the world.
1. Route 66, United States
This is a highway with the title "Mother Road", which can be seen in many movies and animations in the United States. This road exists in a diagonal state. The total length of this road is 3939 kilometers.
It was systematically constructed in 1926. The construction period was during the period of the Great Depression. The construction of this road solved the employment problem of many people.
The highway was officially "retired" in 1985 and is no longer in use, but it has become a famous tourist attraction and an important historical heritage of the United States.
This highway carries the history and beliefs of Americans, and it can be called the most religious highway. It represents the hardships experienced by the American people, like a mirror, so that everyone can remember history.
2. Guise Passage, France
The Guise Passage has the title "Crazy Road", which connects the outer islands and the Bova Marina. Because of its existence in the sea, this road "disappears" for a period of time every day. The 4.2-kilometer-long road has a fixed opening time every day, and when the tide is high, the sea will flood the entire road.
The magic is that this passage is formed by nature rather than manpower. It was written into the map in 1701 and officially opened to traffic in 1840. This road is very beautiful, but at the same time, it is dangerous.
Many people have lost their cars in the sea because they do not have a good time.
3. Enoshima Bridge, Japan
Jiangdao Bridge is a very steep road. The slope of the bridge in Songjiang City can reach 6.1%, that is, for every 100 meters, the height will increase by 6 meters, which can be said to be very dangerous.
This road is famous in Japan because of a car advertisement. From a distance, one has to worry about whether the car will fall from it.
4. Enshi Wall Hanging Sky Road, China
This is a road built on a cliff. The length of the road is about 4.4 kilometers, and the altitude drop of the cliff is more than 800 meters. The whole road is like a ribbon wrapped around the green mountains, which are very small.
This precipitous road took ten years to excavate. At first, it was all built manually by villagers. Later, the government strengthened and repaired it. This wall-mounted road is indeed like a sky road, winding and twisting as if going straight into the sky.
5. Lombard Street, United States
This is a trunk line on a highway in the United States. Although this road is not long, it has 8 sharp bends. The driver has no time to take into account the beautiful scenery of the flowers on both sides, so he must drive carefully in it.
At the same time, this is a sloping street with a slope of 40°, which looks like a "Z"-shaped road from a distance, and can only be driven in one direction. This path has also appeared in film and television dramas and has even been applied to game design.
6. Baldwin Street, Dunedin, New Zealand
Baldwin Street has a total length of 350 meters, and the steepest slope is about 19°, that is, for every 2.86 meters, the height increases by 1 meter.
The only part of the road, about 200 meters below the street, has a relatively normal slope and is paved with asphalt; the steepest part of the first half is only paved with a layer of concrete.
