    El Caminito del Rey (The King's pathway) is a walkway, now fallen into disrepair, pinned along the steep walls of a narrow gorge in El Chorro, near Álora in Málaga, Spain. The walkway has gone many years without maintenance, and is in a highly deteriorated and dangerous state. It is only one meter in width, and over a 700-meter fall, and over time it has also lost its handrail. Some parts of the walkway have completely collapsed and have been replaced by a beam and a metallic wire on the wall. Many people have lost their lives on the walkway in recent years. After four people died in two accidents in 1999 and 2000, the local government closed the entrances. However, adventurous tourists still find their way into the walkway. The view and the music are almost like being in a video game...very cool!

    That's so scary!!! What beautiful scenery, but it wouldn't be worth it to me. I'm not really scared of heights or anything, but that's just asking for something bad to happen. I realized too that I was holding my breath quiet a bit while I was watching it, before I started getting motion sick. Those people are crazy!
