Liziba Station
Liziba Station, Yuzhong District, Chongqing
If it’s your first time in Chongqing, be aware that GPS might not be working so well. Some place may seem to be very close to each other on your map, and getting to a destination may require climbing up lots of stairs. Buildings seem to be next to each other on the roads, but there may be buildings under the road too! That’s how Chongqing ended up having a metro that goes through buildings. To experience this for yourself, Liziba station is located on the 6th and the 7th floor of a residential building and is well worth the visit. There is a platform at the station for visitors to take photos of the amazing scene of train running
