A great question!
If you’re starting from Wenzhou (), I’d recommend taking a high-speed train or bus to reach your destination. Here are some advantages of each option:
High-Speed Train
- Convenient: Trains frequently depart from Wenzhou’s South Railway Station (温州南站) and arrive at destinations like Shanghai, Hangzhou, Guangzhou, etc.
- Fast: Travel times between cities can be as short as 2-3 hours on some routes.
- Comfortable: You’ll enjoy comfortable seats and amenities.
Bus
- Affordable: Bus fares are generally lower than train tickets.
- Frequent departures: Many bus companies operate from Wenzhou’s long-distance bus station (温州客运站), with buses heading to various cities, including Shanghai, Hangzhou, Ningbo, etc.
- Relatively cheap luggage storage available.
Keep in mind that traffic and road conditions may affect bus travel times. However, both train and bus options provide a relatively comfortable ride and scenic views along the way!
