Hussani Bridge Hunza is one of the most dangerous bridges in the world. Yes, this picture is of the dangerous suspension bridge of Gilgit-Baltistan Located in the Gojal Valley area of Hunza District Located in the village of Husseini,
it is the second most dangerous bridge in the world. The gab between two steps is minimum one foot. I was very excited to cross this bridge when I go on 10 to 15 steps it began shake and i was frightened and came back and really feel the terror of this bridge.
This bridge is totally in wilderness there are no safety measure no coast guards Unfortunately if someone slipped and fell in river noone would help you mostly dead body will never found again.
Tourists from Pakistan and abroad come to see this bridge. The history of this suspension bridge is very interesting. The bridge was built during the British rule in the village of Shishkat in Gojal. During the construction of Karakoram Highway, this suspension bridge was shifted from Shishkat Village to Hussaini village in 1968 on the orders of Mir of Hunza to reach the village of Zar Abad on the other side of the river.
Residents of Husseini village use the suspension bridge to reach their newly settled area of Zar Abad, and take agricultural commodities through this bridge to Zar Abad.
Husseini's locals says that before the bridge was built, they have to went to another village 20 kilometers away and climbed a dangerous hill to reach Zar Abad Village.
In 1968, they requested to the ruler of Hunza Mir Muhammad Jamal Khan to build a suspension bridge nearby
and the ruler of Hunza, approved the request and Built this bridge.
The world's most dangerous bridge is 660 feet long and has 472 wooden planks. It is at least 50 feet above
the river bed and the maximum height is about 100 feet.
The bridge not only caters to the needs of the village, but is also a major tourist attraction today.

The photographs of the bridge are very beautiful and the history associated with this place is interesting. Are there any precautionary measures which needs to be followed while crossing this dangerous bridge.

Oh really,
I have seen pictures of this magnificent bridge, to be frank I wouldn't like to thread on the bridge. It looks frightening and so long. The suspended bridge is a clear work of structure. Here it is s form of Form active system which is cable construction.
What if people fall off the bridge, do you have boats around that can rescue them?
Best regards.
