Shenzhen Baoan International Airport lies 32 kilometers from the city center (80 RMB taxi ride). The airport houses over 100 domestic and international airlines, connecting Shenzhen to over 80 other cities around China and the world. Buses run from the airport to the city center and Shenzhen Railway Station. City center-bound buses leave every 20 minutes (50-minute trip). Buses headed to the Railway Station leave every 15 minutes (40-minute trip).
Train
Shenzhen Railway Station acts as an important transportation hub connecting Hong Kong to Mainland China. More than 40 trains travel between Shenzhen and Guangzhou every day. Note: the frequent T-trains are faster than the K-trains. Shenzhen West Railway Station is in the city's Nanshan District. The small station services a handful of long-distance destinations, such as Hefei, the capital of Anhui Province.

Several long-distance bus stations in Shenzhen operate routes around Guangdong Province and beyond to cities like Guangzhou, Chaozhou, Guangxi, Fujian, Zhejiang, Hebei, Anhui, Sanya, and Chengdu. The three major stations are Yinhu Bus Station (0755 8243 6053), Futian Bus Station (0755 8358 7526) and Luohu Bus Station (0755 8232 1670).
Taxi
Shenzhen taxis are either red or green. Red taxis only travel within the city's four inner districts of Futian, Luogang, Yantian and Nanshan. For the other two districts, Baoan and Longgang, only green taxis are available. Price varies according to the color of the taxis and the time of day.
Boat
Eight passenger ports line Shenzhen's harbor including Yantian, Shekou, and Chiwa. The Shekou Port located at the intersection of Gang'ao Dadao and Nanhai Dadao in Nanshan District marks the most convenient travel point, with regular lines to and from Zhuhai, Guangzhou, Macau, Hong Kong and Kowloon.
