Loved the maglev experience in Shanghai. Given that I am an engineer, there was this whole history of being enamored by superconductivity, seeing the science programs in school. It was totally worth the extra ticket price to experience it. The train literally starts flying over the tracks, tilts (just a little) to one side to turn and you see all... More

413 km per hour, the only one in the world. Must do. Speed is limited to 300 km per hour during certain periods. More

Whilst some while argue that this isn't the most convenient (or cheapest) way to get into the centre of Shanghai it is not every day that you get to travel at 431 km/h.

We went on the Maglev from the Airport it reached 301km per hour what an experience its a must to go on costs only 100rmb for two people one way More

Try it once. Worth the experience. I prefer to take a taxi straight from the airport home, but all tourists should try this. More

We took Maglev to airport. Super fast and super speed train. Good experience to try it. in time to took a photo speed at 426km/h More

Cheap (50 RMB), fastest possible (431 km/h, around 7 minutes trip - some periods of the day slower) and very comfortable way to get to metro station which is then only 2-4 stops from the Pudong district where the most hotels are. First time an attraction, second time simply a must. More

The journey took about 7 minutes. Very smooth and steady. The station was very modern, very clean, very up to date and there was a member of staff shouting out "1 minute before the train pulls away". So we quickened our steps and jumped in. The train was very clean with wide and comfortable seats and air conditioning. Oh if... More
