Hi, everyday there is a flight leaving from Shanghai Hongqiao Airport to Linyi in the daytime. And, there is no train between these two cities. So, I'm afraid that you have to stay over in Shanghai and fly to Linyi the next day. Hope this helps!

I would like to travel to Shanghai. I will arrive at Pudong airport at 06.15. Can you tell me how to go to Manpo Boutique Shanghai Hotel ? I will travel alone.
Please suggest and advise.
Jun. 25,2009 01:53
Ms.Evelyn(China) replied:
You may take the Airport Line 3 (Pudong Airport-Galaxy Hotel). The Airport Line 3 passes Xujiahui Commercial Zone. The Manpo Bountique Hotel is near Xujiahui. Just get off Xujiahui and take a taxi to go to the hotel. The taxi fee is more than 11 yuan. Or you can take the airport Bus Line 1 from Pudong airport to Hongqiao airport. The Hongqiao airport is only 20 minutes' drive from this hotel.

Hotels in Guangzhou: please consider the Guangzhou Hotel which is just at the Pearl Square, close to Beijing Rd.
Hotels in Shenzhen: how about the Luohu Hotel nearby Luphu Railway Station and Dongmen, the Guangshen Hotel just 1 kilometer from Dongmen, the 2-star Home Inn of Dongmen Branch,
The Bai Ma Market is just close to Guangzhou Railway Station, good luck~

Thanks Mr Leo. I really appreciate that. More please, price-wise is it cheaper to do electronic shopping at Honk Kong or Shenzhen? How far are they apart?

Well, if you would like to buy the latest and high-level products, shopping in HK may save more money. Vice versa, if you look for common electronic product in bulk, please go to Shenzhen. Hope this helps!

Hi...I am taking my dad and my brother's family to Hong Kong. Need your advice.
1. it will be 5 of us together, actually 4 adults and 1 kid (5 years old). Will the taxi accept us in the taxi if we want to go on one taxi together.
2. We will stay at Metropark Mongkok, what is the best way for us to get to Ocean Park as we are 5 of us together. Would it be easier and cheaper for us to take taxi?
Jun. 18,2009 02:13
Mr.Shan replied:
1. yes, you could take a taxi together. The HK taxi allows five major passengers and one driver together.
2. from the hotel, you could take the MTR Tsue Wan Line at Prince Edward and then get off at Admiralty. The fare is HK0.5 per adult and HK$5 per child. Then, you could take the bus 629 to reach the Ocean Park directly. The fare is HK0.6 per person,
