Bullet trains are fast, better equipped, and punctual in most cases. The ticket price is also reasonable. For Beijing-Hangzhou route, there are more departures than the normal types. It’s pretty convenient and has become the first choice of more and more travelers.
Although traveling by non-bullet train take a relatively long time, it saves the day time as all of the three pairs run overnight and travelers can save hotel expenses as well. The ticket price is cheap. It is a good choice for those on a budget trip.
Of course, you can also choose traveling by flight and it only takes 2 hours or so between the two cities. However, the airports are located in the outskirts. Usually, you need to spare at least an hour to/from the airport. In this way, it is not that time-saving compared with high speed trains. Also, the flight tickets are usually more expensive than railway tickets.
