Without traffic jam of rushing hours like buses and taxies, the Metro Line is the fastest and most convenient way to move about in the downtown area. There are nine Metro Lines operating in Shanghai, reaching almost every corner of the city. You can but tickets form the consulting desk as well as the ticket vending machines which automatically calculate the fare according to the destination station you specifies. But there is a difference between an interchange station and a transfer station, the former is a station where you can change for other lines without meeting a ticket barrier, while the later is one where you have to leave the first line through a ticket barrier and then be charged for another line. |
