Hangzhou to Suzhou Map

Plan your trip between Hangzhou and Suzhou on the Shanghai–Kunming and regional intercity network connecting through Hangzhou East, Huzhou, and Suzhou stations. The route uses high-speed rail lines and intercity services within the Yangtze Delta transport system. Travel passes through urban and peri-urban areas and crosses river corridors; consult line maps and station lists when planning your trip in China.

Rail vs Bus vs Plane

Rail travel between Hangzhou and Suzhou offers city-center to city-center connections with frequent departures and shorter door-to-door times compared with buses and flights. Buses may offer lower fares but require longer journey durations and depart from coach stations. Flights have shorter airtime but need airport transfers and check-in time, making them less practical for this corridor. High-speed rail is typically the fastest option between the two cities.
