This trip is supported by Shanghai-Hangzhou High Speed Railway and Hangzhou-Nanjing High Speed Railway with a connection in Hangzhou, thus travelers who find direct rail schedule unable to fit their plan may choose Hangzhou city for a transfer. Although a transfer in Hangzhou may take a little longer time, the schedule is dense to cover almost every hour during daytime which enlarge the flexibility of your travel.

Alternatively, there are also buses available between. The bus trip would need about 3 hours and cost around CNY60. However, for a bus trip, it may not as comfortable as rail trip since the space for seats are more limited and the bus ride is more frequently influenced by weather and traffic condition. Furthermore, for international travelers, bus ticket can hardly be booked in advance online, thus those who choose bus trip are recommended to buy a ticket as soon as their arrival at the departure city.
