| 1, From Guilin to Fenghuang Town, Fenghuang Town is the most beautiful and peaceful town in China Train route, Guilin to Huaihua, train number, K651/K654, the time is 13:23 to 0:09.But it is mid-night when you arrive in Jishou, maybe you can choose the other train route, from Guilin to Liuzhou first, and then from Liuzhou to Jishou, and the good thing is, Lizhou has direct train to Jishou, there are so many trains from Guilin to Liuzhou, it needs 2 hours by train, from Liuzhou to Jishou, its train route is 2012,its time is 21:16 to 6:04. Fenghuang Town locates in Jishou, so you have to stop in Jishou train station, and then go to Fenghuang Town by bus. 2, From Fenghuang Town to Zhangjiajie, Zhangjiajie is National Forest Park in China Train route, Jishou to Zhangjiajie,train number K534/K535, the time is 11:39 to 13:24.

And the spicy and hot food is really good in Hunan. 3, From Zhangjiajie to Wuhan, Wuhan locates in Hubei province, the next province to Hunan.

| Nanjing isn't located in between Guilin and Shanghai. If you really want to do it all by train, I would suggest perhaps Guilin -- Guangzhou -- Wuhan -- Hangzhou -- Xitang -- Shanghai. |

| GUEST71246 | Sounds like many tourists not on a tour sometime end up buying tickets on the slow (~30hour) train. Can someone post a link/URL to an express train that goes from Guilin to Shanghai? Thanks |

| All the trains for Guilin -- Shanghai South (none go to Shanghai main train station) aren't that fast. There're 4 departures and they all take 22-24 hours, though none as long as 30 hours. Guilin -- Shanghai South: K150 (0752--0627) 22h35min K860 (1710--1552) 22h42min K538 (1731--1534) 22h03min Guilin North -- Shanghai South: K182 (1201--1158) 23h57min |
