Alashankou: Golden Port for China's Opening to the West
Alashankou, located in Bortala Mongol Autonomous Prefecture of Xinjiang, is an important border crossing between China and Kazakhstan, and also the western bridgehead of the Chinese section of the Asia-Europe Continental Bridge. As the core node of the "Belt and Road" initiative, it integrates railroad, highway, pipeline and aviation, and is the necessary passage for China-Europe liner trains ("YuXinOu", "ZhengXinOu", etc.). In 2023, the volume of China-Europe shuttle trains will exceed 8,000 trains, accounting for more than 30% of the national total. With active trade covering energy, minerals, machinery and equipment, the port is China's logistics hub and open frontier connecting Central Asia, West Asia and even Europe. Meanwhile, the cultural characteristics of multi-ethnic settlement and unique border scenery make it a strategic city with both economic vitality and humanistic charm.
