In China, they started pretty late, in the late &#8217;90s. It was after Deng Xiao Ping&#8217;s visit to Japan in 1978 which inspired him to make changes to the country and made more reforms. In one of the videos captured a moment on the trip, Deng can be seen sitting in the window seat of the shinkansen (bullet train) as the countryside races by. He looks like an enthusiastic child on an adventure.<\/p>\n<p>China purchased high-speed rail technology from overseas at first, such as Canada, Japan, and Germany. They dismantle each of the trains and then study the whole structures and remake their own. Now, China has built the largest high-speed rail network in the world. Large numbers of people are now able to travel more easily and reliably than ever before.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-33611 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_20191119_113915.jpg\" alt=\"China High Speed Rail Review on Second Class Seats\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Second Class Seat Review<\/h3>\n<p>We planned our China trip with high-speed rail connecting few cities we wanted to visit. And in each route, we like to experience a different kinds of seats. There are in total about 3 kinds of seats, the <a href=\"\/wordpress\/2020\/04\/is-it-worth-it-to-travel-on-business-class-seat-on-china-high-speed-train\/\">Business class<\/a> which is the most luxurious, followed by the First class and the second class. From Suzhou to Yiwu city, we traveled with second class, also the cheapest. The second class seats cost less compared with the first class. It has 5 seats in a row, as compared to the first class which has 4 seats in a row. The second class seats are suitable for families with young children, the seats are narrower. Budget travelers can also consider the second class.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-33569 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/20191119_112945.jpg\" alt=\"China High Speed Rail Review on Second Class Seats\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Where to put your luggage?<\/h3>\n<p>The luggage racks are above the seats on each side of the coach, if your suitcase is as big as 28 inches, you can put it on top of the rack. The seats on the second class carriage are very narrow so I don&#8217;t you can sit comfortably if your suitcase is placed near your feet. If you have huge luggage, you can place them on the closet which is located at the connection of two coaches, behind the last row of the seats.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-33571 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/20191119_113844.jpg\" alt=\"China High Speed Rail Review on Second Class Seats\" width=\"1024\" height=\"1365\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Train facilities<\/h3>\n<p>The water dispenser is provided at every connection part of the train carriage. Most carriages offer both Chinese and Western-style toilets. The toilets on China&#8217;s high-speed trains seem to be always clean and odorless. I was surprised toilet paper is prepared too. Train attendants can be seen walking up and down a few times to collect any trash from the passengers and make sure toilets are clean.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-33568 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/20191119_112935.jpg\" alt=\"China High Speed Rail Review on Second Class Seats\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Now, let&#8217;s start from the beginning and learn how to collect your paper ticket after you have booked online.<\/p>\n<h3>How to collect your high-speed rail ticket?<\/h3>\n<p>Foreigners are still able to book online from third-party agencies, such as Klook or Trip. I would suggest you go searching with <a href=\"https:\/\/www.klook.com\/?af_wid=1904&amp;aid=ff9eb642a5c1568e&amp;utm_medium=affiliate-alwayson&amp;utm_source=non-network&amp;utm_campaign=1904\">Klook<\/a> first as it has no handling fees but only cover major cities, whereas <a href=\"https:\/\/sg.trip.com\/?locale=en_us&amp;allianceid=21934&amp;SID=455408&amp;ouid=b03f132a82d811ea83bf03f00a180513\">Trip<\/a> covers bigger ranges of cities and towns but has to pay a small handling fee.

China train station is big so always come early, at least 2 hours before departure as you still need to find the place to collect your ticket. Expect lines if you come during peak seasons, eg China holiday and weekends. Alternatively, you can always pick up your ticket in advance, not during the day of the departure.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-33577 size-full\" src=\"http:\/\/thinkerten.com\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2020\/04\/IMG_20191119_091741.jpg\" alt=\"China High Speed Rail Review on Second Class Seats\" width=\"1024\" height=\"768\" \/><\/p>\n<h3>Foreigner cannot collect your ticket from the automatic ticket machine<\/h3>\n<p>At the counter, please show your passport to the window staff.
