Last train on Xi'an Metro Line 2
My train arrives at Beikezhan at 23.06, will there be a metro train running on Line 2? The information suggests that the last metro train runs at 23.15 into the city but I don't think I can buy a ticket and get to the metro in just 9 minutes! Thanks.

No, I'm afraid you can only take taxi to alley youth hostel and the cab fare is around CNY100 to CNY120.

We will take the first metro of line 2 in Xi'an, which should arrive at North Rail station at 7:00.
Would we have enough time to catch a high-speed train departing at 7:30? Please advise.
Thank you

It is suggested to pick up your tickets in advance in case many people line up in front of the ticket machine. Then the time is enough to catch your train.

Yes, you can take metro line 2 from Zhonglou to North Railway station directly. It takes around 1 hour with CNY4. And the first subway train operates at 6:24. I think you can make it.
