Pukou Railway Station

＂ Former site of Pukou Railway Station ＂ is located on Jinpu Road, Pukou District, Nanjing City. It is the Jinpu Railway Terminal, the main road for north and south transportation. The Jinpu Railway (Tianjin ～ Nanjing Pukou) began construction in Qingguangxu in 34 years (1908), and the whole line opened to traffic in 1912 (the first year of the Republic of China), and the construction of the subsidiary building was completed and used in 1914. On May 28, 1929, Mr. Sun Yat-sen arrived here from Beiping, and the National Government held a solemn ceremony to welcome the spirit, and then passed through Pukou Pier and buried him in the Sun Yat-sen Mausoleum. In 1968, with the opening of the Nanjing Yangtze River Bridge, Pukou Railway Station stopped passenger transportation, and some passenger transportation was resumed in 1985, and it was renamed ＂ Nanjing North Railway Station ＂, and passenger transportation was stopped in 2004. The main relics left at the station include main building, Zhongshan stop platform, VIP building, Telegraph Room, etc.

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.

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.

Just like this style of Wenyi, this is the railway station in Zhu Ziqing's back. Now it is being demolished, or you can see the prosperity of the past. It was six o'clock before we were allowed to enter. We saw the dusk at the end of the platform. Two words describe it as sad and beautiful. There are many stalled trains in it, and it is highly recommended to take photographs of literature and art. Above, take advantage of the sunshine, take good sisters and set out. Because the photos were not taken by mobile phone, the railway didn't send out at dusk, so it was really beautiful and beautiful to mend my brain.

That day, I should have walked a nostalgic humanistic line in Nanjing, climbed high in Yuejiang Building, looked up at the Yangtze River Bridge in the Bridge Park, and took the ferry at the original Xiaguan Wharf. Maybe it was all to see Pukou Railway Station. I don't know how long it has been stopped in Pukou Railway Station, time stops in the mottled building, in the dilapidated waiting room, and on the tracks that no wheels have passed. The woman who guards the rails, a late-night woman's face, uses breaking into someone else's home to compare trying to enter the desolate rails, I can only leave. Fortunately, the rails are only part of the Pukou Railway Station complex. I walked along the exterior walls of the building, past the storage and staff dormitory, past the hostel and telephone booths, and past a once bustling century-old railway station.
