There's also a railway line from Beijing to Kowloon, but that line is slower and less confortable than the Beijing-Guangzhou High Speed Railway Line.

I recommend you take the Beijing-Guangzhou High Speed Railway in China, than you can transfer train from Guangzhou to Hong Kong.

I'm planning to train to Hong Kong to (from China), so maybe I can join you in Beijing-Guangzhou&Guangzhou-Hong Kong line.

and attention, you must apply for a Chinese visa if passing China, the Hong Kong visa is not valid in China.

Hello, Добрый день,

Three years ago some crazy Wikimedians (whose I was) travelled by train through Europe to join Gdańsk for Wikimania.

This year I intend to join Wikimania Hong Kong by train from France, mainly with the Trans-Siberian Railway and the Chinese trains. The travel can take a minimum of about 2 weeks (of intensive train :), but it would be more comfortable to take more time; the price seems to be about 300-400 € (+food, visas, etc…), so probably less or similar than the airtravel of ~800 €.

Does anyone is interested to join me? You have time if you want think about. If we are some people interested in Europe, we could join in Deutschland before continuing the 10k km :)
