Photographs and movies of the world's steepest slope road that has been certified as Guinness Book

In the suburbs of the city of Dunedin in the southern part of New Zealand, there is the steepest slope in the world. The name is Baldwin Street. How fast is it is about 1 meter taller every 2.86 m horizontally. It seems to be 19 degrees when it is set to angle. The length of this street is 359 m, and the difference in elevation is 69.2 m, which is hard to understand if it is a number, but it is certainly a rather steep slope when looking at the picture.

Details are as follows.
