The most common form of public transportation is the bus. They provide transportation service in cities and towns even to countryside around the city. Also, special buses can be chartered (包租) for trips to mountains to lakes, and to nearby places of interest. But usually they can't run as fast as you want.
Undergrounds are mostly found in larger cities, such as New York, London, Beijing and so on. The underground is a underground system of high-speed trains. The world's first system was built in London. Underground trains move more quickly than buses. They, too, are cheap and help solve city traffic problems. But they are often crowed and noisy.
Taxis are more expensive than buses or underground trains, but they will drive you to the place you want in the shortest time possibly. Taxis are suitable if you are in a hurry or if you are taking a number of handbags or packages.
If you ever visit a big city in another country, you will probably have no trouble getting around. Like many people, of course, transportation will be your own two legs!
