1. Since there are only two Changsha to Huangshan trains and vice versa, the tickets might be sold out in no time once released. To guarantee a smooth trip, you are advised to book a ticket as early as possible.

2. If the tickets are sold out or the current schedule does not meet your travel time, you can make a transfer at other railway stations. To save time, big railway stations with frequent departures and arrivals along the way are recommended, like Nanchang West and Shangrao. Based on the current schedule, Shangrao, as the junction station, is the best choice for more connected choices.

3. Huangshan North Railway Station is not located near the Yellow Mountain. But there are direct buses sending passengers there. The buses are available at the front square of the railway station from 09:00 to 18:20 which depart every an hour. It takes about an hour to reach the scenic area from the railway station.
