Get around
By plane
Zhejiang is a very small province, it usually makes sense to prefer train over plane whenever possible considering both money and time.
By train
High-speed rail is most recommended. Most of the cities and towns in Zhejiang has at least one fast train station.
By taxi
Most cities have taxi providers, though online taxing platforms like Didi may be preferred.
See
- Wuzhen (ไน้) is located on the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal and also around a net-work of other smaller canals and rivers. The town has numerous bridges, ancient harbors and water-side pavilions, and makes an excellent complimentary side-trip for visitors staying in nearby Hangzhou. Buses ply the route from Hangzhou to Wuzhen.
- The China Danxia landscape near Jianglangshan is inscribed on the UNESCO World Heritage List.
