Henan Linzhou Baijianshan Tourist Road Drives Red-Leaf Economy

The Baijianshan tourist road in Yuankang Town, Linzhou City, Henan Province, after years of widening and reconstruction, has been upgraded from a 3.5-to-4-meter-wide cement road to a 7-meter asphalt road and forms a separate up-and-down-mountain loop. After the Hezhong Line opened to traffic in 2024, the road connects with Shanxi's "Taihang No. 1 Highway." The 11-kilometer tourist loop links resources including Huanghou Folk Village and the ten-thousand-mu red-leaf landscape belt, with 4 new homestays built along the route; Huanghou Town Resort has a total investment of 120 million yuan and more than 80 guest rooms. At present, this road is driving the development of the "red-leaf economy" in the deep Taihang mountains.
