Getting there: You can fly to Wuyishan Airport from major cities such as Beijing and Guangzhou in Guangdong province. Alternatively, high-speed trains connect Nanping with Fuzhou, Xiamen and other major cities in Fujian. From the airport or train station to the scenic area, a taxi costs around 40 yuan ($5.6).
