Where is the map location of Qinghai's U-shaped Highway?
1 Answers
U-shaped Highway, also known as the Internet-famous Highway, is located on National Highway G315 in Golmud City, Haixi Mongol and Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture, Qinghai Province. Due to its undulating road surface that seems to dance with the terrain, resembling a skyward path pointing straight to the heavens, it has been dubbed the "Chinese version of Route 66" and is a popular check-in spot in Qinghai. Additional information is as follows: 1. Friendly reminder: The U-shaped Highway is not a tourist route but a vital artery connecting Qinghai and Xinjiang, with many heavy trucks passing through, posing significant risks. Additionally, it is deep in the heart of the Qaidam Basin, with the nearest hospital nearly 300 kilometers away, making rescue and emergency response extremely difficult in case of an accident. 2. Safety measures: On August 19, 2020, to eliminate traffic safety hazards and prevent and reduce road accidents, the Golmud traffic police department intensified patrols and control on the "U-shaped Highway" section of National Highway G315 and set up warning signs at scenic spots and violation-prone areas.
