Pupils in a remote village in China are forced to scramble down sheer cliffs and cross freezing rivers just to reach their school.
Every term, village officials and teachers come to Pili village in north western China to collect the 80 school children that live there.
The pupils are escorted on a perilous 125-mile journey through the mountains of the remote Xinjiang Uighur Autonomous Region, where some paths along sheer rock faces are only inches wide.
To reach the school, the children must also wade through four freezing rivers, cross a 650ft chain bridge and four single-plank bridges.
It takes the children two days to complete the journey.
