Walking Guide

Take the Xijiao Line subway to Chaping Station. After arriving, walk west for about 5 minutes to a junction where the railway tracks extend. You can wait at this junction for the train to pass. As the train approaches from the distance, you can capture the red front of the train on the tracks. You can also walk to a suitable position in front of the train to take photos.
