Maglev at Long Yang Station

Curious about the other end of the Maglev, after seeing the pictures at Pudong Airport? Here you are:

The building with curve roof is the Maglev station. The white building behind is the station of Shanghai Metro Line #2. So you can take Metro directly after you get off the Maglev train.

There is something disheartening about a 'monorail' type structure terminating in mid air. Neat looking station, though!

I love your site especially the map. Must be the best on line streetmap in China
Perhaps just the best streetmap.

Your website is really useful!
First, I searched for the Pudong Airport by Google and your site was on the top!
I wondered why your website was no.1, not Pudong Airport Official website, but now I know.
Thanks for your crystal clear information and I can decide which transportation will be suitable to me and my group.

last week, I found the outbound taxi stand at Long Yang Station is occupied by a group of vigilante taxi drivers who asked twice of the normal fare for all passengers. To avoid that, simply go to the departure area and ride the inbound taxi to your destination.

I was told the situation has existed for some time.

I am finishing my tour with a group and extending my stay so that I can take the express train from Shanghai to Nanjing. Do I need to buy the return train tickets before my day of departure? I intend to return to a Shanghai hotel the day before my departure by using the Maglev. Since the Maglev Long Yang Station is connected to the Metro line 2, what budget hotels are located near the Metro Line 2? Also, can I purchase the Maglev tickets just before my departure or do I have to purchase ahead of time? Your assistance is greatly appreciated.
