Cikurutug Bridge, Indonesia

Most of the three-hour trip on the Argo Gede train is packed with gorgeous views of green mountains and river valleys. But the ride turns from scenic to scary once you get to the Cikurutug Bridge, where the train slid off its tracks in 2002. Though nobody was hurt, authorities have elevated security precautions to protect their passenger’s safety since the accident.

Where: On the Argo Gede train from Jakarta’s Gambir station to Bandung

Stats: About 200 feet above the valley floor.
