content: I don't know where this is, but I have been on similar bus rides in tourist spots in the 3rd world.  One of these mountain bus rides I went on was on a road that is perpetually wet because of rain as well as mountain spring water that literally runs across the surface of the road.  There were passengers who were praying and chanting loudly to whatever god they had. Those bus drivers make about 30 shuttle runs PER DAY and know every single bump and pothole and turn and switchback like the back of their hand.   The ride is legit terrifying - especially to someone who is used to the safety nets that we have in the first world.  At least this road seems to have guardrails.
