Chengdu–Chongqing high-speed railway
Two rival south-western cities, an hour apart.
The pair are close enough that many travellers visit both without changing hotels twice. High-speed trains run from Chengdu East to Chongqing North and Chongqing West throughout the day, with slower services also using the older central stations.
- Chongqing is famously hilly and its stations are far apart — check whether your ticket arrives at North or West before you book accommodation.
- Chengdu East is on metro lines 2 and 7, with a direct link to the airport line.

FAQ
How long does the train from Chengdu to Chongqing take?
The fastest service on this date takes 1h 15m. Slower trains on the same route take longer — the timetable above lists the actual duration for every departure, so sort by journey time if speed matters more than the hour you leave.
How much is a train ticket from Chengdu to Chongqing?
Second-class fares start at about $23 per passenger including our service fee. Second class is the standard choice; first class and business class cost more and buy wider seats, not a faster train. The quote page always shows the underlying local fare and our fee as separate lines.
Which station in Chengdu does the train leave from?
On this date, departures leave from Chengdu East. Large Chinese cities have more than one station and they are not within walking distance of each other, so check the station printed on your ticket rather than the city name.
Do I need to print a ticket?
No. Chinese railway tickets are issued against your passport, not a piece of paper. Carry the same passport you booked with, and staff will scan it at the gate. Keep the booking confirmation on your phone in case a conductor asks which seat is yours.
How far in advance can I book?
Chinese tickets are released about two weeks before departure, and this page only shows dates inside that window. Popular dates and holiday periods sell out early, so book as soon as your travel date appears.
Which class should I book?
Second class is the default on high-speed trains and is comparable to a short-haul airline seat. First and business class add space and recline for a premium. On overnight trains the choice matters more: a hard sleeper is a real bed, a hard seat is not. Our guide to seats and sleepers explains what each one actually looks like.
