By Taxi
Luoyang has a large number of taxis which are more convenient and comfortable than buses. Taxis charge CNY5 for the first two kilometers (about one mile), then CNY1 to CNY1.5 per kilometer afterwards. Waiting for five minutes costs an extra fee equal to the distance surcharge of one kilometer (about 0.6 mile). If you want to take a taxi to suburban areas of the city, you can bargain with the driver before you get in the taxi.
