Surrounded by cliffs and a deep valley, the village is without roads to the outside world.
Local resident Zhang Xinjian has been maintaining the ropeway for the past 15 years.
I started to work at this spot since the rope was set up.
No one would take the job, Xinjian said to theDaily Mail.
Lubricating the cables once a week is a very dangerous job.
Zhang has to take the cart and apply oil onto the cables along the way.
Yushan is just one of the many villages around the world that lack basic needs such as safer roads.
