2nd Ring Road (Beijing)
Encircling the centre of Beijing, the 2nd Ring Road (二环路, èr huán lù) is just a few kilometres away from the city centre and is a convenient alternative road to avoid congestion there. One can divide the road into two parts: the original ring road (the southern part of the original ring road is now excluded from the current ring road), and the newly extended ring road. This article only covers the current (new) 2nd Ring Road.
