Beijing to Nanchang train?
Jan 30, 2010 10:32
guest10227 Hello

We're travelling from Beijing to Nanchang on Feb 21.
We'd like to do this by rail.
Is this a good idea?
Crowded? Sleeping with others in a bunk?

Thoughts?
Thanks

GUESTBEIJING... Hi I am a Chinese living in Beijing. I can tell you that travel by train in China is NOT as inconvinent and uncomfortable as many foreigners perceive it to be. For your case, I recommend train Z65 to you because it is faster than all other trains from Beijing to Nanchang. After 11hours 57mins travel (1800kms) you will reach in Nanchang at around 8:00AM. Send me a email if I can help further: vip.sina.com|dxm444

Well, you won't be sharing your own bunk with anyone else... so you're not sleeping with someone else in the same bed! That sounds a bit too scary.
However bunks are arranged in compartments of 6 (hard sleeper) or 4 (soft sleeper). You'll be sharing each compartment with other passengers.
This is the time when lots of people will be heading back to work after the Chinese New Year, so train tickets would be difficult to get. You might only be able to get hard seat tickets, and that would not be comfortable for such a long distance and extremely crowded. It might be better to fly if your departure date is inflexible and your budget will allow for it.

It's cold and rains a lot in March and April Nanchang. Temp is from 8℃-13℃.
There are direct flights between Kairo and Nanchang.
Private rooms are available in almost every city of China, no except of Nanchang.
