How to transfer from Zhengzhou East Station to Zhengzhou Railway Station?

I plan to take the bus to Shaolin Temple directly after my arrival.

Answers (1)

Answered by Joseph from LUXEMBOURG | Jan. 14, 2019 18:17

You can take metro line 1 directly taking around 40min. There is indeed a long distance bus station near the railway station where you can take the bus to Shaolin Temple. However, I am not sure about the bus timetable, maybe a few buses only a day. But should be more buses to Dengfeng.
