  • Canton Fair, travel and accommodation update 2025

    For the Autumn 2025 edition of the Canton Fair, I chose a slightly different travel route this time. I will fly to Hong Kong and continue from there to Guangzhou by high-speed train. Finnair operates direct flights from Helsinki to Hong Kong, which makes the journey smooth and straightforward. High-speed trains depart very frequently from West Kowloon Station to Guangzhou South Railway Station – typically around 47-48 departures per day, about every 30 minutes. The fastest trip takes about 42 minutes, and tickets cost around USD 25-27 (about 22-25 EUROS). This makes it extremely convenient...

  • Canton Fair, travel and accommodation

    The Canton Fair takes place in Guangzhou, known in Finnish as Canton, in southern China. Guangzhou is the capital of Guangdong province and one of the most densely populated areas in the country. Flights and connections I recommend booking flights to Shanghai or Hong Kong. In the fall of 2024 there were no direct flights, and to my knowledge the situation is the same for the spring of 2025 as well. I flew via Shanghai, including an airport transfer from Shanghai Pudong International Airport (PVG) to Shanghai Hongqiao International Airport (SHA) and vice versa on the return. I compared...
