Nanning East railway station (simplified Chinese: 南宁东站; traditional Chinese: 南寧東站) is a railway station and metro station of Liuzhou–Nanning intercity railway and Nanning–Guangzhou high-speed railway and the under construction Nanning–Yulin high-speed railway. The station is located in Qingxiu District, Nanning, Guangxi, China. The station, located in 66 Changhong Road, was opened Dec 26, 2014. It is a transportation center of high-speed railways, regular trains, buses, metro Line 1 and coaches.
Construction and structure
It has a total construction area of 251,134 square meters (2,703,184 sq ft), while some sources claim a larger area of 267,471 square meters (2,879,034 sq ft), and cost 6.07 billion yuan (988.05 million USD) to build. The main building is 48.25 meters (158 ft 4 in) tall, 415 meters (1,361 ft 7 in) long and 196 meters (643 ft 1 in) wide. The elevated platform is 150 meters (492 ft 2 in) wide.
The overall shape of Nanning East Station is based on the theme of “Southern Gate, Rising Green City”. The pedestal adopts the shape of a corridor bridge, echoing the upper colonnade, which reflects the characteristics of the Guangxi veranda. The upper storey adopts a combination of triple eave roofs with different heights, which is lifted layer by layer, reflecting the characteristics of modern Guangxi's “rising by taking advantage of the potential”; the giant pillars on both sides of the north and south entrances are full and solid, supporting the central roof, showing the momentum of the “China South Gate”; the twelve pillars of the two-wing colonnade symbolize the twelve tribes of inhabitants of Guangxi; the branches on the top of the pillars stretch to form a whole, and the rhombus texture of the roof is intertwined, shaped like the crown of a large tree full of leaves. This not only shows the multi-ethnic harmony of Guangxi's solidarity and mutual aid, but also fully reflects the ecological characteristics of Nanning as a "Green City".
Nanning East station is also the most technically advanced station under the China Railway Nanning Group. It used an extensive system of steel, smart lighting design, air-conditioning, solar panels and electronic window curtains, along with natural sewage systems and energy management which can reduce the carbon footprint and fuel emissions. The construction used about 20,845 tonnes of steel.
The station building is divided into an elevated floor, a ground floor and an underground floor, with 4200 seats and four liquid-crystal displays, and has an area designated the "Liu Sanjie Nanning East Station Caring Zone" (Chinese: 刘三姐·南宁东站爱心区). A total of 90 automatic ticket sales machines were set up. The elevated floor of the station is the departure floor. Social vehicles drop off passengers on this floor. Passengers enter the waiting area after entering the station to purchase tickets. The ground floor is the platform floor, where all passengers take the train on, and the first floor is the arrival floor.
