wait..isn't 4 yuan like, REALLY cheap?

[LaurenBercarich]

@accebernosam Yes! VERY cheap. Depending on the exchange rate, right now that's about 60 cents - and it was even cheaper when we were there!

Hi there. In Shanghai, the ticket cost is dependent on the number of stations you travel. So, you need to choose the destination station in Shanghai. Beijing, its RMB 2 for any distance traveled, so you don't need to go through all that mumbo jumbo:)

[LaurenBercarich]

@itsbillh You're correct, it's the same price for any distance. However, when you use the machine to purchase a ticket it requires that you enter a destination. You may be able to pick any destination for speed sake and ride as long/short as you want!
