How do I get to the festival?
Ride-Hailing App
If you’re using a ride-hailing app simply type in Langyuan Station (郎园Station) and it’ll be the first option.
Taxi
If you’re taking a taxi, just show your driver this address: 朝阳区半截塔路53号郎园Station.
Subway
The nearest subway station is Line 14’s 将台站 Jiangtai station. But please note that it is not that close and you'll need to grab a sharebike from there so we wouldn’t really recommend it.
However, if you really do want to save that dollar you can go out Exit B and ride a sharebike to Langyuan Station’s West Gate, about a 14-minute ride, taking 将台路 Jiangtai Lu eastbound until it becomes 将台东路 Jiangtai Donglu, then turning south into Jiangfu Park and riding until you reach Langyuan Station’s West Gate.
Remember, there are a number of locations with the name Langyuan 朗园. It is 朗园Station, not any of the following:
