Modern Transportation



An overnight train from Shanghai to Beijing nonstop
Distance : 1318 km
Time: 10 hours













There are 2 lower berth and 2 upper berth which is cheaper








The corridor is kept very clean







Use them while it's still clean





Even in this modern train, squatting is still an option
We were given 4 slippers with 4 different colors, notice mine is green.
