Reviews

5/5

Highly recommended

Took the high-speed train from Shenzhen North Railway Station to Shanghai Railway Station (G2786) and it was a very smooth long-distance journey. Despite being a longer ride, the experience was comfortable throughout. The train was clean, modern, and well-maintained, with good legroom and a stable ride. Even at high speeds, it feels very smooth and relaxed. Boarding was well-organized and handling luggage was easy. There is sufficient storage space, which makes a big difference on longer routes like this. What stood out again was the punctuality and efficiency. Everything ran on time, making travel planning very reliable. Overall, a great way to cover long distances in China without the hassle of flights. If you want to see more from my China travel experience, you can check my YouTube channel travelwithshreya where I’ve shared detailed videos from the trip.
