The Golden Rock sitting dangerously on the edge of a cliff in Mount Kyaiktiyo, Myanmar.
A giant boulder known as the Golden Rock is perched precariously 1,100m above sea level and looks like it may tumble down the mountain any moment.
For Buddhist pilgrims, the Kyaiktiyo Pagoda in Myanmar is a sacred site because the monolith is balanced on a single strand of Buddha’s hair which prevents it from falling down.
