Andy's South American travel blog
6 p.m., 16th March Today is our last day in La Paz,the capital of Bolivia. Tomorrow Max and I are going to Coroico,a town about 60 kilometres from here. We're taking a bus along the North Yungas Road,also known as “Death Road”. It goes along steep(陡峭的) hillsides and cliffs. People call it the most dangerous road in the world! There are hundreds of accidents on it every year.
9 a.m., 17th March I find out more about the North Yungas Road. It's only about 3 metres wide,and in some parts there's a drop of at least 600 metres. That's more than half a kilometre! There's no barrier(屏障) along the side of the road. And there's often rain or fog,which makes it even more dangerous. I find out another thing. Here in Bolivia,they drive on the right side of the road. But on the North Yungas Road,they drive on the left. Why? Because this means that the driver on the dangerous side of the road can see the edge(边线) of the road more easily. The driver's seat is on the left side of the bus,so the driver is close to the edge. Our bus is leaving in an hour!
8 p.m., 17th March We get to Coroico safely. It is terrifying sometimes! But there is no rain or fog. Our driver tells us the road is safer than it used to be,and he's driven it many times before. He doesn't drive fast,and we never go too close to the edge. Thank you,Mr Bus Driver!
