Train Travel Tips
It is very convenient to travel by train in China. For a journey of about 5 hours, people usually prefer to travel by high-speed train rather than by airplane. You may be interested in some helpful information before you take a train trip. Spend one minute to read the tips below:
- Food: The food provided on trains is limited, especially on a long journey, and only Chinese-style food is offered. Therefore, you'd better prepare some food yourself before boarding.
- Water: Boiled drinking water is provided for free on a train but it might not taste very nice. Bottled water is also provided but the price is much higher on a train than in the shops. It is recommended to purchase a few bottles of water before boarding.
- Toilet paper: There might be some toilet paper available on the train but always take your own toilet paper in case it runs out.
- Earphones: The cars may be noisy as people talk or laugh loudly and you’ll probably hear children crying too. You can take some earphoneswith you to reduce the noise level.
- Safety: Always keep your valuables with you no matter whether you are awake or sleeping and no matter where you go on the train.
- Smoking: Smoking is allowed on normal-speed trains but it is forbidden on high-speed trains.
