Liziba Light Rail Passing through Buildings: Check in Guide and Camera Positions

The Liziba Station of Metro Line 2, where trains pass through residential buildings, is the most magical internet famous scene in Chongqing.

Liziba Station is Chongqing's "magical calling card": the trains of Metro Line 2 pass through the 6-8 floors of a residential building, and it has been a top check-in point since its opening in 2004.

How to go

Take Metro Line 2 to Liziba Station. A new observation platform has been built outside the station, which allows for direct photography of trains entering and exiting the building.

Camera position

  • Across the street from the viewing platform/platform: Take a photo of the moment when the train passes through the building at the best angle.
  • Far view by the river: From the direction of Niujiaotuo and the Grand Theater, the elevated road of Line 2 along the river has a strong sense of urban hierarchy.

Surrounding series connection

  • Three story road, Erling Second Factory (Cultural and Creative Park), and Fotuguan Park trail can be visited together.
  • Line 2 itself has excellent views along the elevated river, and it is recommended to take a ride at the 'window seat'.

Tip:

  • The train departs every few minutes, so it's better to take photos on weekdays when there are fewer people.
  • It is not advisable to stay on the platform for a long time to take photos, and it is more relaxed to go to the viewing platform when exiting.

Avoiding pitfalls

The viewing platform is free of charge; The so-called 'paid parking' and 'photography services' are often unnecessary.
