Note: Transfers in Nanchang must be made at different train stations: from Nanchang West Railway Station to Nanchang East Railway Station. Fortunately, there is a direct metro line between the two stations. Passengers can take the line 2, taking about one hour. Therefore, we recommend passengers spare at least two hours for the transfer in Nanchang when booking their tickets. 
 Passengers can take a flight to shuttle from Kunming to Hefei and then transfer to high speed trains, which is probably the most time-saving way to travel between Kunming and Huangshan as there is no direct flight.
