China National Highway 101 is a major trunk route connecting Beijing to Shenyang, Liaoning. In Beijing it is known as Jingshun Road (Chinese: 京顺路) or Jingmi Road (Chinese: 京密路) for connecting central Beijing to Shunyi District and Miyun District, although the actual road also connects Huairou District within Beijing and goes beyond Beijing as a major throughfare to Northern and Northeastern China.
It leaves Beijing at Dongzhimen and heads for Sanyuanqiao, running alongside the Airport Expressway:185 until Beigao, and then continues north while leaning toward the Jingcheng Expressway. Parts of Jingmi Road within Beijing are being renovated as an expressway separate from the national highway.
