SUCRE: A cable car in Bolivia, situated right in the middle of two cities connecting them together, has been dubbed as the longest in the world by Guinness Records.
The complex cable car network is stretched over a distance of 19 miles and goes as high as 13,123 feet.
Made with cutting-edge technology, the cable car offers a built-in Wi-Fi facility, has a soundless engine and runs on electricity.
It currently takes 159,000 passengers to and from the cities of La Paz and El Alto a day and this number is expected to soar to 300,000 once it reaches completion on all stations.
