Shanghai to Hangzhou E-Ticket & Passport Verification
Hi, a friend of mine helped me to buy the train ticket from Shanghai Hongqiao airport to Hangzhou East station. I received the e-ticket. I saw on some websites that passport verification need to be done for those who buy train ticket for the first time. Does this mean I need to go to the counter to exchange for a physical ticket and my passport to be verified? Thank you

It is easy to take metro line 2 from PVG. You can get off at Century Park, exit 4. The hotel is right nearby. As it is near line 2, it is easy to reach Hongqiao Station too. It is recommended to use this station to take a high speed ride to Hangzhou.
