The nearest airport is Ningbo Lishe International Airport, which is well connected with the major international airports in other cities in China.
Ningbo is also served by a major station on the high-speed railway network.
From either the airport or the railway station, a taxi to the UNNC campus takes about 30 minutes and costs 30-50 RMB.
The nearest metro station to the campus is Southern Business District on line 3, which is about 15 minutes' walk. Probably Line 8 will be open soon. So we may updated it on 2026.
