Qinglongqiao railway station (Chinese: 青龙桥站; pinyin: Qīnglóngqiáo Zhàn) (also known as Ching-lung-chiao railway station) is a historic station of Jingbao Railway located in Badaling Town, Yanqing District, Beijing. It was built in 1908, and includes the famous zigzag railway designed by the Chinese railroad engineer Zhan Tianyou (Jeme Tien-Yow). The station also contains the tomb of Zhan Tianyou and a statue of his, along with milestones in Suzhou numerals.
