Hefei is a listed departure city on our China–Baku lane and serves the Anhui and Yangtze-delta industrial belt — home appliances, electronics, machinery and auto parts. Cargo exits at Khorgos or Alashankou, crosses Kazakhstan to Aktau, and crosses the Caspian to Baku — no transit through Russia. Transit is 20–25 days to Baku.
Hefei's rail platform has grown quickly and is now a practical departure for cargo to Azerbaijan. On the Baku lane, cargo exits at Khorgos (or Alashankou), runs across Kazakhstan to Aktau, crosses the Caspian to Alat / Baku, and finishes on Azerbaijani rail. The route avoids Russia, which is why cargo from the Yangtze-delta export base often loads here when the destination is Baku.
