It is convenient to come to Shanghai, as it is the most developed and
international city in China. Frequent flights, trains and long-distance buses
connect the city with other major cities all around China and the globe.

airports to the conference hotel. The taxi costs about 170-200 RMB from Pudong International Airport to the

The Shanghai Metro map.
Ø From Pudong International Airport: reach the East of Nanjing
Road Station by line 2 (about 1 hour), interchange line 10 to reach Guoquan Road Station (about twenty minutes), then walk to
the hotel (about 15 minutes).
Ø From Hongqiao Airport: Metro: reach Guoquan
Road Station by line 10 (about 1 hour), then walk to the hotel (about 15

Travel
around the city:
Ø Two easy
ways (three if you count walking) to travel around the city: taxi and metro.
Taxis are abundant (and inexpensive) in the city and can be hailed from the
street or ordered through a phone call (or as young people often do, via a
mobile app). It is safe and reliable. Cheating by the driver is very rare. We
suggest you always ask for a receipt after the ride, as all detailed
information about the ride and the contact would be printed on it. However, not
all taxi drivers speak English. So we suggest you write the destination in
Chinese characters on a sheet of paper and show it to the driver. Shanghai
metro is clean, safe and foreigner-friendly, with all stations announced loudly
and clear in both Chinese and English. Purchasing metro ticket is
straightforward since most (if not all) stations have manned ticket booth and
automated ticket machines.
