Tim Chambers rides China's high-speed rail from Ningbo to Shanghai during the National Holiday, experiencing the country's efficient transport system.
Join me as I use the China High Speed Rail System to travel from Ningbo to Shanghai Songjiang during the very busy National Holiday Week.Ningbo is a sub-provincial city in northeast Zhejiang province, People's Republic of China. It comprises six urban districts, two satellite county-level cities, and two rural counties, including several islands in Hangzhou Bay and the East China Sea. Ningbo is the southern economic center of the Yangtze Delta megalopolis.
