Liziba Station (李子坝): The Train Through the Building Phenomenon

#chinatrip Located in Chongqing, Liziba Station (李子坝) has become an iconic landmark and a must-visit destination for travelers. Known globally as the “Train Through the Building” station, this incredible architectural marvel sees a monorail train pass directly through a 19-story residential building. What makes Liziba Station so fascinating is its ingenious urban design. Instead of demolishing the building to make way for the train line, architects designed the station to seamlessly integrate with the structure. The 6th to 8th floors of the building house the train tracks and platform, allowing both residents and commuters to coexist in perfect harmony. Visitors are often amazed by the sight of a train seemingly emerging from the building’s façade, creating a unique photo opportunity and an unforgettable experience. The station also offers an observation platform nearby, where tourists can get the best view of this engineering wonder. Aside from being a visual spectacle, Liziba Station is a symbol of Chongqing’s creative urban planning and efficient use of limited space, reflecting the city’s mountainous terrain and densely packed architecture. For travelers exploring Chongqing, Liziba Station is not just a functional transit point but also a testament to human ingenuity and innovation. It’s a perfect stop for photographers, architecture enthusiasts, and anyone looking to witness one of China’s most unique urban landscapes.
