The two cities are more than 600 kilometers apart and connected by the Xian-Chengdu high-speed Railway, with about 60 high-speed trains running each other daily.

The 658 km Xi an-Chengdu High-speed Railway was opened on December 06, 2017, with a maximum operating speed of 250 km/h. The Chengdu to Xi an train service starts from 06:09 to 20:07, and the Xi an to Chengdu train service starts from 06:38 to 19:50.

The line currently has a fixed price, with all trains costing the same on any day and at any time, regardless of speed: 263 yuan (about 33 euros) for second class, 421 yuan (about 53 euros) for first class, and 789 yuan (about 101 euros) for business class.
