Amazing pics. I think they're actually from Sichuan province China, and I think they were mislabelled in the Skyscraper forums. The thread with a few more pics is here (http://forum.skyscraperpage.com/showthread.php?t=115605) and you'll notice that someone has cut out the Asian website watermark from the top of the pics posted here in WWforums.

There are roads like that around Lake Garda (sp) in Italy.

I'll second that Harry!!!!!!!!

I remember the road to my Uncle's place in Nth Island, NZ very well and I was only 3 at the time. The tightest, twistiest road, overgrown with vegetation ie green tunnnels to drive through, mountain on one side, deep creek gully on the other and not enough room for two cars to pass, let alone see one another unless within 2 metres of each other!!!! I remember Dad tooting the horn around every single corner for the 3 km stretch.

Twas a good thing we were in a Mini :D

cheers

another cool road is one going down to jenolan caves from bathurst. 2 cars cant pass and its really steep. you go down and litterally cant do more than 15 around the hairpin like corners. pretty good scenery to.

cheers

I just stumbled on this three part blog with some more amazing "road" pics, including a few more of that road in China (in part two):
