On that list are the usuals like the Pacific Coast Highway, the Nürburgring and the Stelvio Pass. But here’s a new one to add to that list, the Tianmen Mountain Winding Road in China.

As just under 7 miles in length and with a total of 99 turns, the narrow road has been chiseled out of the landscape, rising 1,100 meters (3,600 feet).
