TERRYTRAVELLER Posted February 15, 2016 #1 Share Posted February 15, 2016 Has anyone walked off the ship in Xingang and took public transportation and the Bullet Train to Beijing and if so, how do you do it? I've read that there is a bus that will take you to Tanggu Station but I can't find any info. Also, just to muddle the waters, I just read that Tanggu Station is closed until further notice because of an explosion at the port. If it's closed, what stop do you go to? I'm sure someone has done this on their own....any help would be appreciated. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
movc Posted February 16, 2016 #2 Share Posted February 16, 2016 Tanggu is no longer the terminus of the high speed line with the recent opening of Yujiapu Railway Station. You should be able to take bus 513 out of the cruise terminal to avoid the taxi mafia there. Looks like cruiseportwiki has been updated with new info and lots of links.

Thank you for this information and direction. I have found any information that I have found contradicts itself with the next bit of information I get. I did try Cruiseportwiki but looking at it today, it was just updated. Thanks again and any further information that you or anyone has, will be helpful to me and I'm sure others.

TravelMore&More Posted February 17, 2016 #4 Share Posted February 17, 2016 The Yujiapu Railway Station is the place to go now. The above is the current information. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jules Travels Posted July 11, 2016 #5 Share Posted July 11, 2016 Do you know if the Yujiapu Station would be the right stop for the Royal Caribbean ships? It says Tianjin which used to mean go to Tanggu but if that is closed we will need an alternate. Thank you! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HeyJude408 Posted February 22, 2017 #6 Share Posted February 22, 2017 Hi there, did anyone here on this thread catch the bullet train from Tianjin to Beijing for just the day? We are considering it, but are worried about making it back to the ship on time for sailaway. The first day in port we're going to see the Great Wall and this would be for the second day. We've been told by Chinese friends to avoid rush hour because the traffic is horrendous. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
