China's Newest Train Station Is Bigger Than An Entire City
China’s Chongqing East Railway Station is redefining what a train station can be. Covering approximately 1.22 million square meters, this enormous transportation hub combines high-speed rail, metro connections, commercial spaces, hotels, and offices within a rapidly developing urban district.
Discover how engineers overcame Chongqing’s mountainous geography to construct this mega station, using advanced automation, robotic equipment, and innovative architectural design. We explore its enormous roof, tree-inspired columns, passenger capacity, high-speed connections, and the ambitious urban development growing around it.
More than a railway terminal, Chongqing East represents China’s vision for transforming major transportation hubs into fully integrated city centers.
