This is the famous guilong tunnel in Hunan province, China, connecting to the more than 600-year-old Guoliang China village, precariously perched on a cliff 200 meters high. Deep in the Taihang Mountains, Henan Province, China, Guoliang is a village built of stone with less than 300. From a village in danger of being forgotten, Guoliang village has become a tourist attraction thanks to this uneven road. Previously, it was almost isolated from the world because there was no way to enter; only climbing the cliffs was very dangerous and difficult.

The path of death China — Before the Guiliang tunnel was constructed, access to the nearby village of Guo liang was restricted to a difficult path carved into the mountainside. The village is surrounded by towering mountains cut off from outside civilization. In 1972 a group of villagers led by Shen Mingxin made plans to carve a road into the side of the Mountain. Thirteen strong village workers began the project. The team of village works is without any engineer, but they set about carving a roadway inch by inch, using their handmade tools. Unfortunately, due to inexperience in tunneling and using explosives, five people died during construction. It took them up to 5 years to complete the 1,250m-long Tunnel, 5m high and 4m wide, enough for two cars to avoid each other. However, on May 1, 1977 "Labours Day," the guoliang tunnel road China was officially opened.
