There are about 5 bullet trains from Xi'an North Railway Station to LH West Railway Station and you can get the ticket on the website. Then take the bus No.101 and get off at Taihang Mountain Road Changjianglukou bus stop. Then walk about 250 meters to the university.

You can take a bullet train to Zhengzhou East first, which takes about 20 minutes and CNY 19 for a first class seat, CNY12 for a first one. And then you can take another bullet train there. This train takes about 40 minutes and CNY113.5 for a first class seat, CNY70.5 for a second one.

1. At that time, the direct bus from the airport to LH has been out of service. I suggest you stay in Zhengzhou for a night to head for your destination in the next morning!
2. Upon arriving at PVG, take local subway line 2 to Hongqiao Railway Station. There you can take a high-speed train to Zhengzhou. Then transfer to another train at Zhengzhou Train Station to LH within an hour!
3. It will get wam in Shanghai, Zhengzhou and LH at that time and the average temperature shall be 20℃ or a little higher! Generally, it shall be a good timing to visit~
