Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link

The Hong Kong section of the Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link will officially open on Sept 23, extending the Chinese mainland high-speed railway network to the Hong Kong Special Autonomous Region.

The Guangzhou-Shenzhen-Hong Kong Express Rail Link is not only an important part of the country's high-speed railway network but also a significant achievement of the practice of the "one country, two systems". Its overall length is 141 kilometers, with the Hong Kong section's length being 26 km, and the high-speed trains will cover the distance between Hong Kong's West Kowloon station and Shenzhen's Futian station in only 14 minutes.
