Located in Chongqing’s Nan’an District, the station began operations on June 27, 2025, following nearly seven years of construction. The project was first announced in November 2018, with construction commencing later that month.<\/p>\n

The massive transport hub features 29 railway tracks and 15 platforms, including 14 island platforms and one side platform. It is designed to accommodate both high-speed and conventional rail services, with dedicated facilities for train storage and maintenance.<\/p>\n
