Directions
Our retreat is located in Wudang Mountain, Hubei Province, China.
The closest local airport is Shiyan Wudangshan Airport (WDS). International guests can first fly to a major Chinese international airport such as Xi’an Xianyang International Airport (XIY) or Wuhan Tianhe International Airport (WUH), and then continue to Wudang Mountain by domestic flight or high-speed train.
A convenient option is to fly internationally to Xi’an, then travel from Xi’an East Railway Station to Wudangshan West Railway Station by high-speed train. The new Xi’an–Shiyan high-speed railway makes this connection much easier.
Another recommended route is to fly to Wuhan Tianhe International Airport (WUH) and take a high-speed train from Wuhan to Wudangshan West Railway Station. Direct high-speed rail services connect Wuhan with the Wudangshan area.
Guests may also connect through major Chinese cities and take a domestic flight directly to Shiyan Wudangshan Airport (WDS).
Complimentary pickup is provided from Shiyan Wudangshan Airport (WDS) or Wudangshan West Railway Station. Once you confirm your arrival details, our team will arrange your transfer to the retreat accommodation.
We recommend sending us your flight or train information in advance so we can help you choose the easiest connection and coordinate your arrival.
