Chang Kong Cliff Road, Wooden plank path on Mount Hua, Shaanxi, China.
The Chang Kong Cliff Road consists of wooden planks attached to the vertical cliff face at 2000 meters above sea level on Mount Hua's South Peak.
The path dates back over 700 years to when monks created this route to reach meditation spots and temples across different sections of Mount Hua.
The trail forms part of Mount Hua, one of China's Five Sacred Mountains, where Taoist practitioners have conducted religious ceremonies for centuries.
Visitors must wear safety harnesses connected to steel cables while traversing the 100-meter-long wooden plank path between April and October.
The narrow wooden boards measure only 0.3 meters wide and extend along the sheer rock face without protective barriers on the outer edge.
