What is the most economical/easy way to travel to the mountain from either Beijing or Shanghai?I've seen High-Speed railway trains from Beijing for ~90USD, however they arrive in huangshanbei.  Is this close to downtown/ mountain?  Are there other options via Bus?I want to strike the right balance between the most cost effective and easiest form of travel.
