It is not that hard to take the phone out of your pocked (everybody in the world have one) and make the conversion. Gees, people want everything done for them nowadays. That is the reason China is advancing so fast. They just do what is needed.
2:36 “…about 229ft on either side of the road.” I do not understand the absurd precision often used when metric quantities are converted to imperial. Especially in this case where 70m is ~229.7ft which correctly rounds to 230ft anyway.
Woww, first time hearing narration on China without bashing at it one second on UA-cam, other channels always dilute content with that. Amazing video, scripting, and narration it was super informative.
Cuz they have so much back bad records which always comes in mind 😁🤣 while even talking about them Sudden devlopment come with sacrifice And many more Like a game user using mod Nd hacks 😂 🤣😂
Wonder why they bashing China? Must be just their jealousy and bias. Poor authoritarian dictators and their 6 million thugs, cctv cameras, tracking apps, jail systems, "great" wall of fire that keep their citizens in internet prison .. And bad bad outsiders who are refusing give all their money, land jobs to CCP.
We have three such roads, and all of them cross the desert, the length of each is about 500 kilometers. I would like to inform you that from April to October every year, there are service points along the road where you can rest and drink water. So, if you are a cycling enthusiast, you can try your hand at crossing this desert road. It will be a bit difficult - in mid-summer at noon the surface temperature exceeds 70 degrees Celsius, so it's best to ride in the early morning and late evening, and rest at lunchtime. However, due to the dense distribution of service points and the presence of two small towns along the way, it can generally be said that the whole process is pretty safe, provided your health is good. I highly recommend cycling enthusiasts to try their hand at this route. Another exciting guide is the 5,476 kilometer bike ride from Shanghai to Lhasa, passing through more than a dozen provinces in China, with delightful views. Also highly recommended for cycling enthusiasts!
More than oil & gas it is a strategic road to connect to Tibet. The other access to Tibet further east is through the high mountains of Aksai Chin. It passes through area annexed from Indian territory & will have to be returned sooner or later. Besides, in case of an Indo China war it gives them one more route to access Tibet.
What Indian territory? The eastern part is attached to the rest of India with an umbilical cord. People in the east are East Asians. They are forced to be in India by British when they drew the boundary and left.
Shut up, India was not even a country historically and u r put together by British to push drugs. Bfore India, its a fragmented land with various empires doing their own thing.
Excellent piece. Thank you. Very interesting. I think it is quite unique. Although I remember a desert road in Lybia, that the flight I was on from South Africa to London seemed to follow for almost two hours to the Mediterranean coast. At a speed if about 750 km/h that would be about 900 miles of desert road. I read that Lybia has an extensive network of oil roads in the desert to service their oil wells.
You might rethink your commentary about the road being unique. The Eyre Highway (commonly referred to as the Nullarbor Hwy) in Australia is 1675km long and takes around two days to cross, with petrol stations 200 klm apart. The longest strait stretch is 147 km (91 miles). 🇦🇺
Dryland is not desert. Taklamakan is not only a desert but also a shifting desert. You can google the differences if you are interested and you will find the huge difficulty of the construction.
The Nullarbor Plain road in Western Australia is 781 miles long with no inhabitants, apart from roadhouse occupants. Most of that is not sandy desert. The transSahara Highway is 4,000km, with a lot of that being dunes. So this is not the longest route.
In the event of World War 3 this will facilitate ease of access in moving troops and material so that the oils wells etc, can be secured quickly as possible to preserve what is left so that the supply can be manipulated even more that it already is.
It is fascinating, but a railroad would have been 100000 times smarter. It can transport more efficiently and more oil volume is better for the enviroment and faster travel. They build railroads everywhere else but smh they neglect it here
@@benb5891 No it wouldn't be, because that has exactly the same solution as when the road gets sand blown all over it: they planted corridors of trees.
Such projects are very temporary and needs lot of maintenance and care. Like growing a forests in the middle of desert. With uproraring global climate such projects are hard to sustain or needs lot of money to pour for survival.
You can find other videos about this road's sustaintion, per 20+km one station with a couple workers(with a husband and his wife mostly). Their job is to pump the water for the trees and grass around the road.
Interesting. Reminds me of the view from freeway of Southern Pacific Railway through the Coachella Valley from Cabazon to Indio California. Salt Cedar trees serve to keep sand off track and break the wind.
Its military purpose has no relation with development also the same with border areas Chinese the human colony, Aksai China China occupied Kashmir, Which India lost in early 1970, china took advantage of India's India unstable politics, India's newly independent at was the time, IndiaChina army was not advanced as compared to China, we had only British left weapons, but now we are worlds 2nd most military person and 4th largest military in the world, we will definitely take this land back in future it's not only dream its revenge tibet, south China, Aksai Chin
Will the other countrys plant green in their desert? China is the top rank who plant green most in the world... A desert in Northern China called Mu Us desert has become green land for decades hard work.
Now, the Fruit bearing trees like avocado. mango, jackfruit, date, licchi, grapes etc must now be plated in the middle of the desert roadside planted forests. ok.
'Why did the chinese build the road across the desert?' Well, to get to the other side. Anyway, the desert there is foreboding, and the road is interesting, but I don't think there is anything too amazing about drilling into an aquifer for water!
@NickBrown How about sharing with us USA and her allies like Australia, Canada, EU, and UK Military terrorism to where ie in Afghanistan, Vietnam, Korea, etc etc
I have a question , why road , why not they build railway for oil and for passengers ? (Maybe it's costly build but after that railway system save time and money )

nothing is there to like about this video bro, you know who really build this long desert road? mainly Uyghurs political prisons with no payments. i really dont understand why people really appreciate for such projects and does anyone think of how many prisoners was dead in heat and bad working environment? if you work in desert more than 12 hours then i am sure within a week your youtube channel no longer have new video will be uploaded. in China most of govt maga projects there is image of prisoners in the uniform.
when capital flows mindlessly on a command of a autocratic mob on top and we don't think about how many political slave laborers died there .. anything is possible.
One must wonder how many Mexicans died there then. No seriously they just make 90% of product in Mexico shit it to US and finish it there then boom Made in US product.

When you say miles please think of the rest of the planet and introduce also km! It's not that hard :))

it's not the longest. it's the unique one.
I would love to see a video on that project!
Almost all of this road is built in the desert of moving sand.
that australia its a dry land not a desert, dude
Tibetans look like Chinese ppl ..entire north east India do not look like rest of India ..
Worked on Seismic crews there in the 1980s.
Very cool. I absolutely love China when it does cool stuff like this. China has many more projects like this.
grt work china
It's about time these guys make themselves a new promise land for the world to see
Amazing! A light house on the dessert. Best for sand's lovers.
i think u should say in km too bro, coz not all people familiar with miles.

money is no the problem. oil is funding it. people is not the problem in China also. so ...there is no problem.
@@CoreQ yes yes that was my actual point
Guess what, we really growed a forests in the desert, Mu Us desert. we are doing something, not saying something.

The reforestation efforts started with a hydrogen refinery called tower town in hotan, good story 😮
All praise to China
Very clever people
That’s the kinda highway you go 120mph in a convertible
I love china 🇨🇳
Their people
Their infrastructure.,building
They can do impossible things in this world 🌎
If there is so much oil under there, we clearly have no idea how oil is formed as quite clearly there was never a forest there
There was a forest when the dinosaurs walked the earth. The geography and weather was different
but you did not show the latest footage of road.
If you miss an exit, call an ambulance.
A pipeline would have been greater Idea if it was all about transportation of gas or oil.... 😂
Thank you for your information.
(And then I will make a calculation, from miles to kilometers )
Thanks for the positive view on China. Lately, all I’ve been encountered anti China videos😟
Respect china👍👍👍👍👍
Thank you.

Now they need some casinos there.
Guess, the Chinese will start green forest and green farming along the road
Then are already doing it in parts of the Gobi desert, so are some African nations actually planning to make a green wall against the Sahara sands.
I would love to drive on this highway.
Better check all the fluids on your vehicle lol

Coastlines all over the world have salt water and a huge amount of sand.
They build in SI units, not in some barbaric crap.
It is in flow desert. Much more dangerous
The road crosses the desert to get to the other side, just like why did the duck cross the road theory.
