Getting Around

By City-bus

In Wenzhou, several city bus routes play very important roles in the city's transportation. Tickets for most buses are CNY1.5. As there are no conductors on the buses, it is best to ensure you enough loose change prior to boarding the bus.

The No.28 is the tourist bus. The ten buses are designed in classical European styles and are very comfortable with air conditioning. They start at Nanpu Road and end at the Huanglong Residential Area between 06:00 and 24:00. The fare is CNY2 per person.

By Taxi

Wenzhou has many taxis shuttling in the city. The fare differs from daytime to night. Usually in daytime, it is CNY10 for the first four km (about two miles) and the distance surcharge is CNY1.4 per km (about 0.6 mile). While at night, it rises to CNY12 for the flat rate and CNY1.68 per km for the distance surcharge.

By Water

Wenzhou once had waterways leading to Shanghai, Hong Kong and other cities. However, due to the development of the railways and airlines many cruise lines have been canceled, leaving only several lines to the nearby counties and scenic locations. There are two main wharfs: An Lan Wharf and Wang Jiang Harbor. There you can take the ordinary or express ships to Dongtou Scenic Spot, Da Mai Yu Island and Nanji Islands. Here is some information about the two harbor passenger transport centers.
