Hi wow.. amazing.. but where the hell it is situated??

Hi I have seen the same pics on other blogs also.. some say its in bolivia and some says its in china
The road shown here is the Guoliang Tunnel in Taihang mountains (China). It has been built by villagers themselves, which is an inspiring story in itself:”Before 1972, the path chiseled into the rock used to be the only access linkingthe village with the outside world. Then the villagers decided to dig a tunnel through the rocky cliff. Led by Shen Mingxin, head of the village, they sold goats and herbs to buy hammers and steel tools. Thirteen strong villagers began the project. It took them five years to finish the 1,200-metre-long tunnel which is about 5 meters high and 4 meters wide. Some of the villagers even gave their lives to it. On May 1, 1977, the tunnel was opened to traffic.
wow… its really amazing and scary too
