Question

I need some advice to travel from SZ to Putuoshan by long distance bus. Where is the bus station in SZ and can I purchase the ticket on the spot? How long is the journey and does the bus has toilet?Does the bus has any stop over before reaching Putuoshan and does it stop at Putuoshan shijiamen(at the ferry?).Is there a bus to travel from the Putuoshan to Shanghai and how long is the journey and where is the last stop in Shanghai.  Thanks

There are three buses run to Putuo from SZ North Bus Station every day, scheduled at 09:30, 11:20 and 14:30. You can buy the ticket on the spot, but reservation is needed during peak season. It takes around 4h to arrive.I have no idea if there are toilets on board. However, you don't need to worry about this issue. It would be best to be facilited. If not, the driver will stop the bus on the way to let passengers to go to the bathroom in certain Service Area. The bus cannot take you to Putuoshan directly. Upon getting to Putuo Shenjiamen Bus Station, you can take a taxi to Banshengdong Port at the cost of CNY9. There you can take the ferry to the scenic area. From Putuoshan to Shanghai, go to Banshengdong port first and take a free shuttle bus to Chengbei Bus Station (Putuo Shenjiamen Bus Station) to catch a direct bus to your destination. Or take a ferry at Putuoshan Ferry Terminal to Shanghai directly.
