Hi, it is within 1,300 meters between them, so you can walk there easily! Walk from the Bell Tower to West Street, along which you can walk around 780m and then turn right to Town God Temple street. Along this street, you can walk for about 150m to turn into West Jianhua Lane to get there.

Two subway lines have been put into service so far: line 1 and line 2.
