The Maglev (short for Magnetic Levitation) is the fastest train in the world. It connects the Pudong airport to Line 2 of the metro system. Jon and I take it to the airport whenever we don’t have much baggage because it is a lot faster than waiting in traffic, especially since our apartment is right on Line 2.
Besides being a convenient option to get to the airport for locals, it is a tourist attraction. I’ve never actually taken a photo of it, but Hanna and Henrik did…. They rode it during a rainy day. it was a good way to get out of the wetness.
