Travel to Chengdu

 Chengdu Metro

Chengdu Metro is the city's rapid transit system. As of 2026, it operates 13 lines with over 550 kilometers of track, serving major urban districts and seamlessly connecting key transport hubs—including railway stations, intercity bus terminals, and both international airports.

Line 10 serves Chengdu Shuangliu International Airport (CTU). Passengers can transfer at Taipingyuan Station to Line 3 or Line 7 to reach central areas such as Chunxi Road and Tianfu Square.

Line 18 provides direct rail service between Chengdu Tianfu International Airport (TFU) and southern downtown zones (e.g., Chengdu South Railway Station and Financial City). To reach core central districts like Tianfu Square, a transfer to Line 1—or a branch of Line 18—is required.

Moreover, since 2023, Lines 18 and 19 have been through-operated, offering direct train service between Shuangliu and Tianfu Airports in approximately 30 minutes—making Chengdu one of the few cities in the world with direct metro connectivity between two international airports.
