Construction started in 1950 and opened to traffic in 1954. The asphalt road with the highest altitude and the longest route in the world is also the shortest, best and safest road to Tibet. The landscape along the way is magnificent and rich. You can see grasslands, salt lakes, Gobi, mountains, deserts and other landscapes. Open to traffic throughout the year, it is the busiest highway among the five routes into Tibet. Drivers are prone to fatigue after driving for a long time, so there are many traffic accidents. From time to time along the way, you will see trucks turning under the roadbed, so take the Qinghai-Tibet line carefully.<br \/>\nThe Qinghai-Tibet Highway is 1937 kilometers long and is a national secondary highway. The roadbed is 10 meters wide, the slope is less than 7%, the minimum radius is 125 meters, the maximum driving speed is 60 kilometers per hour, and the average altitude of the entire line is above 4000 meters. The altitude is high, but after climbing the Kunlun Mountains, the plateau is an ancient lake basin, with gentle fluctuations. A total of 474 culverts and more than 60 bridges have been built with a total length of 1,347 kilometers. The total investment in the initial construction and reconstruction of roads and equipment purchases was 405 billion. Yuan, the average cost per kilometer is 252 million yuan.<\/p>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"3_Karakoram_Highway\"><\/span><strong>3.
