Travel times are estimates from map distance. Price levels compare areas in the same city and are not quotes. Hotels are picked by distance and Google rating (4.0+ with 300+ reviews), never paid placement. Rates and availability change a lot on show dates.

  • The last Blue Line train into the city leaves Kunyang at 00:15. Some transfers close earlier, from 23:48, depending on the line and direction.
