Shanghai has different transportation options according to your budget. The metro is the fastest transport option and it arrives every three to five minutes. The Maglev train is the first in the world used for tourism and transportation. It connects the Shanghai Pudong International Airport with the outside of central Pudor and covers that 30.5 km distance in 8 minutes. Taxis are not expensive but avoid using them during the traffic rush hours and keep in mind that most taxi drivers know little to nothing of English so you may have to explain the address in Chinese. #travel #shanghai
