City-bus
In Wenzhou, several city bus routes play very important roles in the city's transportation. Tickets for most buses are CNY1.5. As there are no conductors on the vehicles, it is best to ensure you enough loose change prior to boarding.
The No.28 is the tourist bus. There are ten of them, all designed in classical European styles and are very comfortable with air-conditioner. They start at Nanpu Road and end at the Huanglong Residential Area between 06:00 and 24:00. The fare is CNY2 per person.
