In southern China’s Guangxi, rice paddies and mountains form nature’s own oil painting. Many foreign travelers stop cycling mid-way, watch the harvest, and simply stay.
Imagine driving a single route that takes you along China's entire land border and coastline.
That is exactly what a massive new 27,000-kilometer loop will make possible.
According to the Ministry of Transport, China plans to build this super-highway during the 15th Five-Year Plan period (2026–2030) by linking three major routes—the G219, G331, and G228—end to end. Tracing the country's borders and coastline, the journey will stretch more than half the length of the Earth's equator.
Far more than a transportation corridor, the route weaves together hundreds of scenic areas and historic cities, offering a journey across some of China's most diverse landscapes.
G219 runs about 10,000 km from the Kanas Scenic Area in northwest China’s Xinjiang to Dongxing in south China's Guangxi, crossing deserts, the Qinghai-Xizang Plateau, the Himalayas, and other spectacular terrain.
G331 stretches about 9,200 km along China's northern border, taking travelers through the vast grasslands of Inner Mongolia, the fertile plains of northeast China, and iconic destinations including Fuyuan, Mohe, Changbai Mountain, and the Greater and Lesser Khingan Mountains.
G228 extends about 7,400 km from Dongxing in Guangxi to Dandong in Liaoning Province, linking China's coastal provinces and dozens of seaside cities. Running across major rivers including the Pearl, Yangtze, Yellow, and Yalu, it offers sweeping views of the country's coastline.
If you could explore one part of this epic loop, where would you start?
