Join the 124th Canton Fair with High Speed Rail

The 124th China Import and Export Fair (Canton Fair) will be held from 15 October to 4 November 2018 in Guangzhou. The Canton Fair is a comprehensive international trade event that attracts more than 200,000 exhibitors and buyers from 210 countries and regions all over the world. With the recent opening of High Speed Rail in Hong Kong, exhibitors and participants from Hong Kong and overseas can now enjoy a frequent 1-hour journey train service to Guangzhou. It takes only 47 minutes if you travel on trains without intermediate stops. What’s more, since High Speed Rail departs from Hong Kong West Kowloon Station, located in downtown Hong Kong, it offers extra convenience to business travellers.
