Pukou Railway Station

When you mention Nanjing, or the travel impression related to it, many people may think of Zhongshan Mausoleum, Ming Xiaoling Mausoleum, Ming City Wall, Xuanwu Lake, Confucius Temple, Zijin Mountain, Jiming Temple, etc. Yes, these are one of the popular attractions in Nanjing. But there is also a free fun and romantic place in Nanjing. Not only that, it is the only railway station in China that preserves the characteristics of the Republic of China. It is called Pukou Railway Station. And the Nanjing North Railway Station that everyone is seeing now is the old site of Pukou Railway Station. The former site of Pukou Railway Station is located in Pukou District, Nanjing. It was built in 1908, that is, in the late Qing Dynasty and early Ming Dynasty. When you come to Nanjing, walk into the former site of Pukou Railway Station in Pukou District. Although it has long been a deserted railway station, there are many things to see about it here. And here, every building in the Republic of China will be marked accordingly.

The former site of Pukou Railway Station, which is full of nostalgic style of the Republic of China, is located in Pukou District, Nanjing City, built in the Qingguangxu period (1908), it is said to be the only railway station in China to preserve the characteristics of the Republic of China, and is listed as the nine most literary railway stations in China. In 1914, Pukou Railway Station officially opened operation, is an important transportation hub connecting Pingjin, Luyu and other 11 provinces; in October 1968, with the opening of Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, Pukou Railway Station stopped passenger transportation; In 1985, some passenger transport was restored and renamed "Nanjing North Railway Station". The freight business of the station was continuously expanded and the scale of the station was continuously expanded. In October 2004, passenger transport was suspended. On May 3, 2013, the old site was listed as a key cultural relics protection unit in the country. It has been closed, you can't enter the house to visit, you can only stroll around the door, the porch is very Republic of China style, the surrounding houses are dilapidated, and it is currently under construction and repairs. It feels that it will be open to the outside world in the future.

It is rare to see the green leather train now, but the change is quite comfortable. There is also a cool air conditioner in the carriage, and there is no sound of "dangdangdang" when the wheels licket the rail. There are not many passengers in the carriage. The carriage becomes spacious and quiet. Passengers standing or sitting on the floor have disappeared, even seats are too empty to be used as temporary sleepers

Personally feel that it is worth a visit if it is not worth a visit. The key is that I don’t know what it has become now. I vaguely remember that I went there once when I was very young. I didn’t feel very good at that time. Wei Qu for many years, now do not know how, just listen to friends said will be!

In Pukou District, Jiangbei, opposite Pukou Pier, far from the city center, the internal closure seems to be in the transformation, only a closed door can be seen, if it is not just a ferry from Zhongshan Pier to Pukou Pier, there is no need to come here specially, I didn't see any tips on when the renovation was finished 😩

Jiaxing Railway Station is crowded with people, and there are many people coming.

Changjiang Tianzhu, for centuries, Chinese people want to cross but have no way to cross, the country's industrial base is weak, engineering and technicians are scarce, and many building materials can't be made domestically. How easy is it to cross the Yangtze River? Jinpu Road, so I can only reach Pukou Station. Now go is for patriotic education. Necessary!

Pukou Railway Station is very historical, Zhu Ziqing's back description is this platform!
