South Station is a little bit far from downtown, it is more direct by taxi. Taxi fare could be around CNY80 to 100. If you take metro, it is also workable. You can use line 1 from South Station to Huancheng Nanlu first and then change to line 2 to Dongfeng Square. Finally change to line 3 to Panjiawan and exit from gate C. You can finally walk to the hotel in our 5min.

I will go from Shenzhen to Kunming by G2926 first and then to Dali.

I am just concerned if the arrival and departure stations are the same? I am not sure which station the train to Dali will depart at?

Answered by Nelly from USA | May. 22, 2019 17:59

Both the main station and South Station are used for trip to Dali, it depends on which ride will you choose. As G2926 will reach South Station, you need to choose one from this South Station to Dali.
