Previous directions to ChenJiagou say to use the North bus station. Is that the same as the New North Station?
Another post says the bus Station is near the Zhengzhou Railway Station. Should I go to the South Central Bus Station?
Or, is the Central Bus Station, West Square Section the right place to go?
Since the bus stations have multiple names, the street address of the Station that serves Wenxian would be si helpful.
Thank you, Evelyn from California.
also, how long is the journey ?
are there long distance bus from yuntai mountain scenic area back to zhengzhou?
thank you

You are suggested to take the metro line 1 to the Main Railway Station first. Take a train to Jiaozuo Railway Station. It takes around half an hour. After arriving, there are direct buses that can take you to the mountain area. The duration is around 1.5 hours.
The return way is the same. There is no direct long-distance bus to Zhengzhou.
