Shenzhen - Zhangjiajie Railway Map

However, there is one inconvenience for this transfer as passengers may need to shuttle between  Changsha South Railway Station and Changsha Railway Station. Fortunately, the two have been connected by metro line 2 and a metro ride can finish the distance between in about 35 minutes. If by taxi, it takes about 25 minutes and CNY 30-35. Passengers are advised to leave at least 1.5 hours for a transfer between the two railway stations.

Direct flights are not available between Shenzhen and Zhangjiajie at present.
