GARE ROUTIÈRE SUD

This bus station serves all destinations south of the desert and Urumqi.

Hotan, daily departures between 9 h and 21 h (for 7 to 10 hours).

Yarkand, daily departures between 9 h and 21 h (for 3 hours).

Urumqi, daily departures between 7 h 30 and 19 h 30 (for at least 24 hours… Think of taking sleeping berths instead of seating…)

Note: It is also possible to purchase train tickets in special machines (counters 4 and 5) inside the railway station. If you find that the train station is too eccentric, here is a good plan.
