Where does the Hebao Expressway run from and to?

Hebao Expressway runs from Caozhou in Heze City, Shandong Province to Fengxiang Liulin Town in Baoji City, Shaanxi Province. Definition of Expressway: Expressways are high-grade roads, abbreviated as expressways. According to the technical standards for highways set by the Ministry of Transport of China, an expressway refers to a road that can accommodate an average annual daily traffic volume of more than 25,000 passenger cars, is exclusively for high-speed divided-lane traffic, and has full access control. Specifications: Although different countries have different names for expressways, they all specifically refer to roads with more than four lanes, two-way divided traffic, fully controlled access points, and all-grade interchanges. In addition, many countries also refer to direct trunk roads with partially controlled access points and not all-grade interchanges as expressways.
Oh, I'm quite familiar with this question as I've driven on the Hebao Expressway several times. It's a very long highway that starts in Heze City, Shandong Province, specifically in the urban area, and then runs westward through several places in Henan, such as Kaifeng and Luoyang, before finally reaching the outskirts of Baoji City in Shaanxi. The entire route is about 800 kilometers, which takes quite a while to drive, especially on the mountainous sections where there's often fog, so you need to drive carefully. Personally, I like taking this route for travel—there are ancient towns and snack stalls along the way. However, I recommend checking the tire pressure and brakes before setting off to ensure safety. During holidays, it's also wise to fill up the tank in advance because the service areas get overcrowded. All in all, it's an important east-west corridor. Don’t rush while driving; enjoying the scenic views along the way is quite nice.
