How Do I Take the Subway?

The basic procedure for traveling on the subway is as follows:

1. Find a subway station: Subway stations are usually clearly marked with signs such as the word “subway” or a local subway icon.

2. Buy a ticket: Tickets can be purchased via ticket vending machines that accept coins, banknotes or cell phone payments. If you use the QR code for public transportation, you do not need to buy a ticket.

3. Security check: Put your luggage into the security check equipment, and cooperate with the security staff to check if you carry liquids.

4. Entering the station: Use your ticket, transportation card or QR code to enter the station through the gate.

5. Take the train: Confirm the direction of the train according to the signage on the platform to avoid sitting in the opposite direction.

6. Exit: After arriving at your destination, swipe your transportation card, put your one-way disposable ticket into the recycling port or use your QR code to exit the station.
