From Pudong International Airport to ECNU, the most convenient way is to take Airport Shuttle No. 6 and then call a taxi. There are taxies at the terminal of Airport Shuttle No. 6. It is very convenient for you to get a taxi when you get off the airport shuttle. You may also directly call a taxi when you walk out of the airport. It will be more expensive than taking the Airport Shuttle first and then taking a taxi. The three taxi companies providing the best service are:
- Qiangsheng: 021-62580000
- Dazhong:021-96822
- Jinjiang: 021-96961
When you take a taxi, show the following address to the taxi driver: 中山北路3663号华东师范大学 (Chinese spelling: Zhōngshān běi lù, 3663 hào, Huádōng Shīfàn Dàxué). He/she will take you directly to the university gate.
