If train ticket from Hangzhou railway station to Shanghai run out I will take bus from Hangzhou East bus station but how to get Hangzhou east bus station from railway station except by taxi?

Feb. 6,2010 00:52
Mr.Jamie replied:

If you would like go to Shanghai by bus, you should take a coach at Hangzhou Passenger Transport Central Station, not the east bus station. All of the bus lines operted by the East Bus Station have been transferred to the Central Station. You could take the bus K508 from the railway station to get to the bus station directly. Well, please refer to the info on this page: http://www.travelchinaguide.com/cityguides/zhejiang/hangzhou/getting-there.htm
