Which station, in a city that has five
A Chinese city rarely has one railway station. It has three, four or five, and what separates them is a single character stuck onto the city name — a compass point. Your ticket may show it as pinyin run together, “Beijingnan”, or as English, “Beijing South”. Same station.
In Beijing, 北京南 is the southern station, where the high-speed trains to Shanghai leave from; 北京西 is the western one, a good hour away across town. On a ticket they read “Beijingnan” and “Beijingxi”, and nothing in either word says which is which — except its last syllable.
The five characters worth knowing
- 东
- east
- 南
- south
- 西
- west
- 北
- north
- 站
- station
The compass point is glued to the city name — no space, no hyphen. The trailing 站, “station”, is usually painted on the building and dropped from the ticket.
Cities with more than one station
The roman name here is put together: the city name as OpenStreetMap writes it, plus the compass point in English. Booking sites switch between “Beijing South” and “Beijingnan” — it is the same station.
