You can input "trip 1" and "trip 2" together on our website for round trip schedule. After you add both trains into your shopping cart, you can submit them together. We are sorry that there is no discount of ticket price therefore we are not able to offer discount either. Hope for your kind understanding. One day is OK for a quick visit in Pingyao. If you want to experience the culture and nightlife deeper, you can consider to stay one night there. Hope this information can help you.

00ReplyNo, it is not a walking distance. The station is more than 9km away. But you can walk about 200m to the Beimenkou bus station and take bus 108 directly there. It take around 30min but you'd better to have extra 10min or so for a waiting time.

ReplyHi, can I board the train from Pingyao if booked from Taiyuan?
If I book a ticket from Taiyuan to Xi'an on D1901, will it be a problem to get on at Pingyao Ancient Town?
Answers (1)
Answered by Tommy from USA | Nov. 20, 2018 19:1900Reply
00ReplyIt is no problem to board from Pingyao though the ticket shows Taiyuan. Taiyuan is one stop before your boarding, so the seats will still be hold for you. You can use the booked seat shows on your paper ticket directly. The impotent thing is that do collect the paper ticket in advance before 7:20am, the departure time from Taiyuan, otherwise, there is a possibility that you will lose your seat.
