    Getting Around

  • airport
    Wuhan airport is 18km from the city center. The airport is connected with 36 other cities in China and has international flights to Bangkok and Fukuoka.

    The airport bus goes to the Hankou bus terminal in Wuhan. The fare is 15 Yuan. Travel time is 23 minutes. Most upmarket hotels hotels have a complimentary shuttle bus. A taxi from Wuhan Tianhe airport to the centre of Wuhan is approximately 70yuan and takes bout 40 minutes.

  • railway
    The Yangtze river divides Wuhan in three districts; Wuchang, Hankou and Hanyang. Each district has its own train station serving different destinations in China. The 2 most important train stations are in Wuchang and Hankou. Hankou station (to Beijing), Wuchang station (to Guangzhou) and Wuchang (Chengdu, Chongqing).

    Because of the (wide)Yangzte river, trains have to make long detour to their destinations. Often it's more simple to travel by bus (bus can cross the river) The overnight bus for example goes to Shanghai and Nanjing.

    bus
    The cheapest transportation, but crowded, is the city bus. Fare is 2 Yuan wherever you go in the city. An express Bus drives between Wuhan and Yichang. (07.00-20.00) Fare is 105/125 Yuan.
    Taxis in Wuhan seems quite expensive.
