Is there a bus from Leshan Railway station to river boat cruise terminal?
Hi. May I know if there's any bus or taxi that I can take from Leshan Railway station to the river boat cruise to see the Giant Buddha? I have bad knees and won't be able to do any climbing. Thanks.

You can take Bus Line K1 from the railway station to Jiadingfang (嘉定坊), which is only 200m away from the Jiazhoudu Ferry Terminal. It takes about 40 minutes and costs CNY 2.

Train from South station to Leshan
Hi. May I know whether we need to pre-book our train tickets to Leshan (from Chengdu South station) or can we buy on the day itself?
If need to pre-book, may I know on which website to buy the tickets online? Thanks.

It is okay to buy tickets at the train station on the same day. However, the tickets at certain hours may sold out, especially on weekends. If you want to pre-book, you can book with TravelChinaGuide directly: https://www.travelchinaguide.com/china-trains/.

Can you please tell me which station is closer to Xinliang Hotel?

This hotel is closer to the south station, around 7 or 8km, taking 20 to 30min by taxi. If you want to take subway, you can walk to Jinjiang Hotel first which is around 1.5km from your hotel, then you can take line 1 and get off at the 5th stop.

Chengdu-Leshan-Emeishan in one day
How long it takes at Leshan for visiting? Do you think it is doable to reach Mt Emei on the same day?

From my experience, half day would do at Leshan. I did not go for Mt Emei but I used to read it closed at 5pm. So if you need to reach there on same day, it could be a little rush but possible. If you booked a hotel outside Mt Emei, time is not a problem.

Schedule Changes
Have the new times been published yet? I would like to book a train on the 30th April but the website says there are no direct trains. Is this because of the change in times or is it because of the proximity to the labor day weekend?

Thank you for your inquiry.
Due to the schedule adjustment, the timetable for trip after April 19 is still not available at this time. You may wait a few more days for the schedule information. Once published by railway company, we will update it on our website too. Sorry for the inconvenience.
