Transportation : Air/Train

Hunan stands at the crossroads of China's historical lines of communication—the great waterway of the Yangtze River, which flows from Szechwan Province to the sea, and the Imperial Highway, running from Canton northward to Peking.

Local railway construction began in 1912, and the first line was between Wu-han and Chu-chou; it was eventually extended south to Canton and is now part of the major Peking–Canton trunk line. There is a junction at Heng-yang leading to Kwangsi, from where the line continues south to Hanoi. From Chu-chou, the Che–Kan Railway runs east to Kiangsi Province and also to Chekiang and Fukien on the east coast. Another railway runs from Hsiang-t'an westward to Kweichow Province, opening up the hitherto remote western lands, and a second north–south line has been built through western Hunan.
