But the high speed rail line from Guangzhou South Railway Station has been extended to Zhuhai Railway Station, which is just next to Macau across Gongbei Port. After passing the port, there are buses taking you to many destinations in Macau.
There are about 100 pairs of high speed trains a day running between Guangzhou South Railway Station and Zhuhai Railway Station. The duration is about 45 minutes to 1.5 hours only, and the ticket price is CNY90 per person for first class seat and CNY70 per person for second class seat.
