How to get in Yangzhou
There is a domestic airport in Nanjing, 37 miles southwest of the city, and buses go to either the east or west bus stations in Yangzhou. A train station, newly built in 2003, stands remote from the town's center, roughly two kilometers further out than RT-Mart. It's located on the newly completed Nanjing-Nantong branch line - there's about 5 hard-class only local trains between Nanjing and Yangzhou (about 1.5hours and around 10RMB) as well as a handful of K-series fast(ish) trains that continue to Shanghai as well as daily services to Beijing (10hr night train) and Guangzhou. These trains also have hard sleepers available, air conditioning and make fewer stops. Departures are on the upper level of the station, tickets and arrivals are on the lower level.
There's a small convenience store inside the station. Buses and taxis depart from outside - 'black' illegal taxis are rare in Yangzhou, but regular drivers may 'forget' to use the meter.
To travel to Shanghai, or elsewhere in the Yangtze Delta regions, passengers cross the Yangtze over the new Zhenjiang-Yangzhou bridge (frequent commuter bus service is available) and take a train from the Zhenjiang station, which is located on the main Nanjing-Shanghai rail line. The quickest way to get to Nanjing or Shanghai is on the bullet train from Zhenjiang Station.
