How to get from Shanghai to Hangzhou from the Pudong airport (PVG)?
In China we have the saying that “There is paradise in heaven and we have Suzhou & Hangzhou on earth.” So when foreigners come to China they must have the idea of a traveling to Hangzhou city that near the airport no matter it’s a travel or a business trip.
In my years of working with foreign customers, in addition to the eyelash product issue, one of the most frequently asked questions is how to get from Shanghai Pudong Airport to Hangzhou?
As we all know, Shanghai PVG airport is where you get off the plane and when you go back your hometown it’s also a must place. So let’s see below paths that you can take and hope it can help you in your tour plan.
Today, Our Lash talks about it today.
The most convenient way to get to Hangzhou from Pudong Airport is to go to Hongqiao Railway Station and then take the high-speed train to Hangzhou.
Several other railway stations in Shanghai, such as Shanghai Railway station and Shanghai South Railway Station, also have high-speed rail or bullet train to Hangzhou, but the number of trains is less than Hongqiao Railway station, a day dozens of high-speed train, if not in holidays do not need to buy tickets in advance, you can arrange your routine after arriving at the station according to the actual situation.
From Pudong Airport to Hongqiao Railway Station there are several ways:
1. Take subway Line 2 from Pudong International Airport station to Hongqiao Railway Station. The ride takes about 100 minutes and the ticket costs about 8 Yuan.
2. Take Line 1 from Pudong Airport Terminal 2 to Hongqiao Railway Station. The ride takes about 100 minutes and the ticket costs about 34 Yuan. If you're stuck in traffic or heavy traffic, it can take a longer time, please take this into consideration in your plan.
3. Take the maglev from Pudong International Airport to Longyang Road Station, and then transfer to Subway Line 2 to Hongqiao Railway Station. The whole journey takes about 75 minutes, and the ticket costs about 56 Yuan.
4. Take a taxi, it takes about one hour, and the fare is about 240 Yuan.
In addition, there is also a long-distance bus from Pudong Airport to Hangzhou, the specific information is from 8:40 and 70 minutes shift, the last shift is 21:00 , as for the specific boarding place and parking place in Hangzhou, it is suggested to contact: 021-68345743.
Taken together, the first method and the direct bus suggest you consider it according to your own situation.
And at last, welcome to China! If you are looking for wholesale mink lashesor eyelash extensions in bulk, please contact with Our Lash.

Chamber of commerce in UK donates 20 ventilators, 2 million items of PPE Donated by China Chamber of Commerce (CCCUK) member, the Bank of China, the ventilators already arrived in London on Monday, and 65 metric tons of PPE are now at Shanghai Pudong Airport ready for transfer. They will be received by Lord Mayor's Appeal, or LMA, the official charity of City of London.
The equipment includes 722,000 surgical masks, 100,000 N95 masks, 19,000 surgical gowns, 19,000 goggles, and one million pairs of medical latex gloves.
On Wednesday, Liu Xiaoming, China's ambassador to the United Kingdom, said during an online donation ceremony, that China and the UK have a "firm determination" to join hands to overcome current difficulties.
Liu said: "The virus does not respect borders. The virus does not discriminate. People of the world must work together if we are to win this battle." He said the donation demonstrates "the global vision of Chinese businesses" and "the friendship between China and the UK".
"It is also a vivid illustration of the China-UK 'Golden Era'," he added.
William Russell, the Lord Mayor of London, said the generosity of CCCUK, Bank of China and its broader community "really is astounding".
"The ventilators and PPE equipment on their way to hospitals, to healthcare professionals, and to communities across the UK will, quite literally, save lives," he said.
The CCCUK organized a fundraiser titled "UK and China, United We Stand" on Feb 28, to support China's fight against novel coronavirus outbreak at that time.
"Back then, it was the City of London showing its commitment to China," Russell said. "And now, China is reciprocating, and showing its commitment to the UK."
Fang Wenjian, chairman of the chamber and general manager of Bank of China London Branch, said the current situation in the UK is similar to the situation in China "not long ago", and so "the CCCUK has asked our members to do all we can to contribute to the UK's fight against the virus.
"Following the call, Bank of China, with strong support from our head office and domestic branches in China, has moved quickly to procure much needed ventilators and PPE, and donate them to the LMA to be passed to the National Health Service (NHS), caring homes, and local communities," he said.
The CCCUK said that the batch of medical supplies will be the first of many donations received by the LMA from Chinese enterprises in the UK.
"Many other Chinese companies have also shown their commitment to donating more ventilators and PPE. The CCCUK and LMA will work together to facilitate the provision of these critical materials to where they are needed most," Fang said.

Guide: How to see Sleep No More in Shanghai
Here's a quick guide for how to get to Shanghai to see Sleep No More.
Feel free to ask additional questions or send corrections if you have any.
How do I get tickets to the show?
The best approach is to get tickets through the Punchdrunk Keyholder program. This will get you VIP entry, which has a shorter queue and enters first.
Click here to become a Keyholder by donating to Punchdrunk.
If you're not a Keyholder, it’s worth considering. Don't you want a holiday card from Punchdrunk every year? ;) They also send occasional surprises related to the shows; this year’s Drowned Man related gift made me cry. At the higher levels, you'll be invited to events in London with the creative team. Keyholder donations help fund inspiring creative educational experiences for children in London; it's worth donating even without the perks.
Do be warned that they have a limited allocation of Keyholder tickets, and may run out of tickets for the dates you seek. Your alternative is to buy through the show website at sleepnomore.cn.
If you need tickets to a sold out show, there are Chinese reselling sites where you may be able to get tickets. You'll probably need to be able to read Chinese and have a Chinese credit card, and you need to be on the lookout for fakes. Consider this as a last resort.
Also keep in mind that the show is currently only selling tickets until end of April 2017. I assume that like Sleep No More NYC and The Drowned Man, it’ll keep extending in small batches, but there’s no guarantee. Don’t book flights until you have confirmed tickets.
What if I have another question about tickets...?
Email the Punchdrunk Keyholder team or the contact email on the China show website. I've gotten quick replies (in English) from both.
How do I get to China?
From the US or UK, you'll need a visa, but before you can apply for a visa, you need to book your flights and hotel.
How do I fly to China?
You’ll probably fly into the main international airport, Shanghai Pudong (PVG). There is also a smaller domestic airport called Shanghai Hongqiao (SHA) which you may fly into if your flight includes a transfer.
From New York, two airlines fly direct: United and China Eastern. (It's 15.5 hours there and 14.5 hours back). Many other airlines fly with transfers.
It's worth checking if you, or friends/family, have spare airline points lying around. You can book United via United (obviously), Air Canada Aeroplan, and ANA. You can book China Eastern via Delta or Air France Flyingblue. You can also book flights with things like Amex points.
Full fare cost varies, but I've seen it as low as $800 round trip from NYC. Don't book a flight until you secure tickets to the show.
From London: Virgin Atlantic, British Airways and China Eastern fly direct, with flight times of 11 hours outbound and 13 hours return. It's possible to get flights for under £500, but dependent on dates, economy returns can be over £1000. Check with @whenwillweawake for more details from a Londoner’s perspective.
The jetlag is unbelievable. I've never experienced anything like it. I was wide awake at 5am every day and could barely keep my eyes open after 10pm. (The opposite of usual.) Look for jet lag remedies and try some before you go.
Where should I stay?
The show is in a neighborhood called Jing'an. It has a lot of shops and restaurants, but not a ton of hotels.
There is a hotel called The Drama, which is associated with the show, and is located next door. I don't think it's opened yet and I don't see any info online about how to book it.
I ended up staying at the Radisson Blu New World by People's Park. (I got a really cheap deal on TripAdvisor.) People's Park is to the east, one metro stop away, about a 25 minute walk to the show or 10 minute cab ride. It's a touristy area with a lot of international hotels. This makes it easy to find ATMs, Starbucks, English-speaking hotel concierges who can call you a taxi, etc.
If I go back, I'll probably try to stay in a less touristy area such as the French Concession, which is south of the McKinnon.
You can check hotel prices & see them on a map using a site like booking.com.
On the plus side, hotel rates in Shanghai are significantly cheaper than in New York or London. There are also very affordable hostels, including some that offer private rooms.
Where exactly is the McKinnon?
It can be difficult to get it to show correctly on a map. The address is 1013 West Beijing Rd. Here’s a map link that should work.
How do I get a visa?
Once you book your airfare and hotel, you can apply for a visa. Make sure your passport has at least eight months remaining - if not, you should renew it first.
For Americans -
The instructions you get from the Chinese embassy are confusing. I followed this other site which was much more clear.
Here is an example of a correctly filled out form, requesting a 10-year unlimited visit visa from the visa office in New York City. (You may as well request a 10-year unlimited visit visa - it doesn't cost anything extra.)
You don't need to use a paid service (ie the link above recommends you use their service) - just take it to the embassy yourself. You'll need to pay $140, I believe they take Mastercard & Visa in addition to cash.
For the photo, a standard passport photo works - just go to Yelp & search for "Passport photo" if you're not sure where to get one. Tons of places take them around the city.
Location to apply for visa:
Passport and Visa Office Chinese Consulate General 520 12th Ave. New York, NY 10036
Hours: 9:00am-2:30pm, Monday to Friday except holidays
For British citizens, it’s also an easy process to get a Chinese visa. You’ll need to have your flights and hotel booked, 6 months left on your passport, a passport photo and a signed declaration form, as well as the completed visa application form.
Click here for details and a step-by-step guide.
The form only allows you to apply for a single or two-trip visa, but multiple entry, two year visas are now being granted by default for those applications following an agreement between the two governments earlier this year. It’ll cost you around £150.
It’s a quick process when done in person, book an appointment online for 6 weeks to 1 month before you’re due to depart, visit the office (which is close to Bank) to hand in the forms, and then your visa (and passport) will be ready to pick up in less than a week.
It’s also possible to apply by post - although I’m not sure of the timings for that.
How do I get around Shanghai?
Taxi drivers don't usually speak English, but if you give them an address in Chinese they'll usually take you there.
I relied on a website called "Smart Shanghai" which is in English but provides addresses in Chinese for taxis.
Here's the Chinese address for the McKinnon Hotel - print this out & bring it with you to show to taxi drivers.
Also bring a printout of your hotel address. You can use it to get from airport to hotel after you arrive, and to get to your hotel at night after the show. (Make sure to wait in the actual taxi queue at the airport - rip off artists will try to steal you out of the queue and lure you into their overpriced cabs.) A taxi from airport to downtown should be under 200 CNY and take around 45 minutes.
In addition to taxis, the Metro is an excellent option. It's cheap, clean, easy to use, and has English everywhere you need it - ticket machines, train announcements, etc. It goes right near the McKinnon, the Nanjing Road West stop on lines 2 and 12. However, it stops running relatively early, just after 10pm, and it's crowded at rush hour.
We generally took cab or metro to the show, and walked back to our hotel at night.
We enjoyed getting around the city by wandering around and walking a lot. Just watch out for mopeds and bikes on the sidewalk. Unlike NYC, moving vehicles apparently have the right-of-way over pedestrians.
How do I pay for things?
Many places (including the McKinnon and its mind-boggling gift shop) don't take international credit cards. We usually used cash.
You can withdraw cash from most ATMs, although some won't work with international banks. We didn't have too much trouble finding ATMs that would work for us.
Call your bank before you go to alert them that you'll be withdrawing cash from China.
What time should I queue?
If you have Keyholder "Fast Pass" VIP entry, 30-40 minutes before the show starts.
If you have regular entry, I'm not sure. The queue looked huge. :(
I don't think the time listed on your ticket matters. They seemed to let people in by order of arrival, as in NYC and London.
Be aware that they mix up the cards. They're still distributed roughly in order of arrival, but 2s are mixed in with Aces, 3s are mixed in with 2s, etc. Even if you are the first person in the queue, you may get a 2.
What else do I need to know about the logistics of the show?
Don't bring your phone in. Check it with the rest of your stuff. This will save you time - if you do bring in your phone, you'll have to lock it in a bag, and queue to unlock it after the show ends.
To avoid the coat check queue, get your stuff immediately after the show ends, then return to the Manderley.
The Manderley closes early - 11pm at the latest, so you'll need alternate plans if you want to stay out late.
It gets very hot inside the show, even in winter. Dress to stay cool.
How do I post my recaps to Tumblr?
Much of the Western Internet is blocked in China, including Tumblr and Facebook.
If you have T-Mobile, you'll have free international data that is unrestricted, although very slow.
Other cell phone plans may also offer international data without restrictions, though you may have to pay extra for it.
If using wifi, you'll need a VPN to connect to most sites you're used to. PM me for VPN recommendations.
If you're traveling with friends, you can all sign up for WeChat (it's like the Chinese version of Facebook & WhatsApp) and message each other with it.
Also, remember that Punchdrunk thrives on surprise. Please avoid major spoilers in your recaps, especially about 1:1s and aspects of the show that have changed.
What else should I do in Shanghai?
I used the Lonely Planet Guide to Shanghai - it has a lot of useful information. (If we’re friends IRL, be in touch if you want to borrow my copy.)
A few recommendations:
Jing'an Temple. It's just one Metro stop from the McKinnon. You pay a small entry fee and can then wander around exploring the statues and architecture. It's beautiful and a nice peaceful refuge from all the crowds.
French Concession. It has beautiful architecture and a lot of interesting bars, restaurants, and independent shops. (Sort of like the Greenwich Village of Shanghai.) We started with a self-guided tour in our guide book, then wandered off of it and went exploring.
Yu Gardens. Lovely (if crowded) old fashioned Chinese gardens.
Fairmont Peace Hotel. A stunning 1930s Art Deco hotel on the Bund. They offer a tour and have a cocktail lounge, and live jazz in the evenings until after midnight. Very expensive drinks, though.
Shanghai Museum. Gorgeous porcelain and other historical art. Plus it's free.
Contemporary Art. We were going to visit M50 Creative Park and/or Power Station of Art but we ran out of time.
Shikumen Museum - this architectural style is used in the show, should be worth the visit to see the real thing. (Although we didn't actually see it because I got lost. Oops. Next time!)
Propaganda Poster Art Centre - another thing on our list that we didn't make it to see.
Bund Sightseeing Tunnel. Just absurd. Go with a friend and laugh. Maybe have a drink first. On the way to this you'll also have a view of the Art Deco architecture along the Bund, and the crazy modern skyline of Pudong.
Do be aware that the smog is particularly bad around the river. (I could taste it on my lips. Blargh.)
Shanghai Disneyland. The new Pirates of the Caribbean ride is wonderful, but we made the mistake of getting there an hour after the park opened and spent most of the time in a miserable amount of queues. (Queues to get into the park, queues for Fast Passes, queues to get into queues, queues full of children hitting you while their parents do nothing to stop them...)
ONLY do this if you can get there a half hour before it opens. It's just too miserably crowded otherwise.
The "must do" rides are Pirates of the Caribbean, Snow White, and Tron. Peter Pan, Buzz Lightyear, & Soaring are also good.
(Be warned that the rides often break. We didn't get to ride Snow White even though it's the main ride in Fantasyland, because it was broken most of the day.)
If you can get there early, cover the big rides immediately. First get a fast pass for either Snow White or Tron, then ride Pirates of the Caribbean (do "single rider" for a shorter queue), then use your first Fast Pass, get another Fast Pass for Snow White or Tron, queue for something else, use the second Fast Pass, and then leave or see a show.
Where should I eat?
I'm vegan and was worried about finding decent food, but between @errrrtythebabber's amazing recommendations, the HappyCow vegan app, and @whenwillweawake's willingness to try anything, we found a ton of great food to eat.
Be warned that it's almost impossible to find vegetarian food in most non-vegetarian places, especially if you don't speak Mandarin. Many seemingly-vegetarian things are actually cooked in lard or meat sauces, or have unexpected meat or seafood toppings.
A few recommendations:
Vegetarian Lifestyle - On the same block as the McKinnon! Great vegetarian food, although they don't speak English so it's difficult to verify what's vegan. The menu has photos and English captions.
If Vegan - Fabulous vegan food a 5-minute walk from the McKinnon. The menu (on an iPad!) also has photos and English captions. From 2-4pm they only serve tea and desserts.
Jing'an Temple - One Metro stop past the McKinnon (~25 minute walk). In the back of the temple there are three floors of vegetarian restaurants including a first floor casual cafe, second floor table service restaurant, and third floor massive buffet (with vegan options labeled).
Fu He Hui - ridiculously swanky, exquisitely high quality 8-course vegetarian meals. They'll adapt it to be vegan if you ask. You'll need a reservation. With the exchange rates, the prices in dollars are incredibly affordable given the level of quality.
How do I make sure I see the amazing new scenes in the show?
Dude, I’m not going to tell you that!
However, if you’re only going to one or two shows, I will give a bit of info on what has changed, so you don’t spend your time on things you’ve already seen in New York.
If you’re going to more than two shows, don’t read this! You’ll figure it out on your own.
The main things that are significantly different than in New York:
New female character
New male character
Cunning Man
Sexy Witch
Speakeasy Barman
The new female character is far more interesting than the new male character. I’m sure he’ll evolve, but sticking with the female character first is a good idea.
Some of these characters have a lot of overlapping scenes. An approach that will show you a lot of what’s changed, without too much repetition, would be to start with Sexy Witch, then switch to the new female character after the banquet. (Sexy will lead you to her.) For the final loop either follow Cunning Man, the new male character, Speakeasy Barman, or go do something else entirely. (Perhaps Duncan or Taxidermist, who are also somewhat different.) When you hit a repeat scene, wander and explore the set.
You could also follow the new female character straight off the first lift, but I think it’s more powerful to see her story in narrative chronological order, ie starting after the first banquet.

week in japan: getting to japan
I remembered I had this blog, and I’d be remiss if I didn’t record my week in Japan. After my internship in China in 2014 (!), I spent another week in Japan. Getting from Suqian to Tokyo was an experience in itself, so I can’t not write about it.
[An aside about the actual internship: whole experience was great without the actual work part. I truly miss my Chinese coworkers and they were wonderful. In perverse American fashion, I imagined them as wise and strong kung fu warriors that were born in a different time period. They had a je ne sais quoi quality that I still admire.]
The plan was to take a train from Suqian to Xuzhou, then Xuzhou to Shanghai. Then I was to take the plane from Shanghai to Tokyo.
One of my Chinese coworkers, I think his English name was Billy, drove me to the town train station and we shared the warmest goodbyes that two people who didn’t speak the same language could.
When I got on the train -- and I don’t remember why -- my seat was occupied, so I had to stand for an hour with a bunch of other Chinese men, who were smoking and having a good chat. I think the train was so crowded that it was impossible to even get to my seat, and I was already carrying a backpack and a huge suitcase.
When we arrived to Xuzhou, I realized that it was most people’s final destination. There was only an exit and no way to transfer to another line. I grabbed an attendant and, showing my ticket, explained that I was supposed to catch another train to Shanghai in a couple of hours. To punctuate my helplessness, I told her that I was Korean. Ordinarily I would say that I was American, but I had since learned that in Asia, it is difficult to explain how I could be Asian and American at the same time.
The attendant understood and radioed her coworker to let me into the waiting room for transfers, which was at the top of a tall flight of stairs. The coworker waited for me at the top of the stairs and was so delighted by the fact that I was Korean, that he kept saying “Angyeong-hasaeyo” to me with a big smile as I visibly lugged my baggage up the 40+ steps of stairs.
Grumpy that he didn’t offer to help, I gruffly responded in Mandarin, “Yes, yes, I am Korean,” as he led me to the waiting room. Though I had been somewhat of a spectacle, they were very kind and made sure that I got to my train on time. At this point, it was night and I had booked a sleeper car to Shanghai.
Relieved to lay down, I tucked my valuables next to me and fell asleep in my bunk bed. The “car” was not separated by doors and had four beds per section, which I shared with an old man and a mother with her two children. Some time during the trip, the children were chattering, obviously excited by the trip in the sleeper train. Chinese tourists are notorious for their entitlement and rudeness, and I stirred in my bed to signal that I was being disturbed. The mother saw this and hissed at her children in Mandarin, “people are sleeping!”, which I greatly appreciated.
I arrived in Shanghai around 6 AM. Now, it was the season of ZhongQiuJie, or the Mid-Autumn Festival. I mention this because this is the season of glorious moon cakes. Because I’m a glutton and kind of stupid, with the help of my fellow intern, I pre-ordered two boxes of Starbucks moon cakes, because you can’t get them outside of China. They are wrapped in a gorgeous box and come in Westernized flavors, including Earl Gray and coffee chocolate. I have a precious memory from these Starbucks moon cakes that I will write about later, but I was determined to have them and bring them back to my loved ones in America.
I took the subway and went to the general area which had Starbucks I needed to go to. I went to a local convenience store and asked where the Starbucks was. I followed the directions of the kind cashier, but the office building that housed the Starbucks was opening at 9 AM. So I went back to the convenience store, hung around and got breakfast. I was cutting it close because my plane was due to fly in a few hours and, like all airports, Pudong Airport was outside of the city.
I went to the building as soon as it opened, but to my absolute horror, the Starbucks was still being constructed, as in it wasn’t open yet, as in it would not open by the time I had to catch my flight. By this time, I was really running out of time. I flagged the attention of a nearby security guard and in a panicked voice, asked him if there were any other Starbucks nearby.
Amused by what seemed to be my desperate need for coffee, he pointed at a Starbucks that was across the street. I nearly screamed and ran as fast as I could with my suitcase-on-wheels. I realized that that was the Starbucks I was supposed to go to. When I got there, that Starbucks had been open since 7 AM. I dashed in, showed them my pre-order ticket, collected my boxes, and ran out to the nearest subway station. These moon cake boxes are huge, so now I was running with a backpack, a large suitcase, and two unwieldy boxes.
As a poor grad student, I was hoping to take a cheap subway ride to the airport, but I had no choice but to take the speedy, but more expensive maglev train. From the train, I ran (I did a lot of running that day) to the Korean Air ticket booth. They started speaking to me in Mandarin, and in Korean I asked them, “Can you speak in Korean please?” I wasn’t going to try communicating in English in such a short amount of time.
I made it to the plane and arrived in Tokyo safely. Please note that I had not showered or changed my clothes in 24 hours in the journey from Suqian to Tokyo. So as the Japanese customs man mentioned how pretty the moon cake boxes were and wondered where was I was going with them (that was the gist, I believe, since he was speaking Japanese), I was too tired and gross to humor him. But I was in Tokyo and I was relieved.
