News 2025/06/27 View:6523

The newly opened section, part of the Chongqing-Xiamen High-Speed Railway, runs from Chongqing East Station to Qianjiang in Chongqing. It connects with the operational high-speed railway between Qianjiang district in Chongqing and Changde in Hunan province, via popular tourism site Zhangjiajie, also in Hunan province.

The section will shorten the fastest travel time from Chongqing to Changsha, capital of Hunan, to just three hours and 53 minutes — saving over an hour, further strengthening connectivity between the Chengdu-Chongqing economic circle and the Changsha-Zhuzhou-Xiangtan city cluster. The fastest service has not yet been provided as the country is about to adopt a new national railway schedule from July 1,2025

Spanning 242 kilometers, the new stretch includes seven stations: Chongqing East, Ba'nan, Nanchuan North, Shuijiang West, Wulong South, Pengshui West and Qianjiang. It connects to the Qianjiang-Zhangjiajie-Changde high-speed railway at Qianjiang Station.

The travel time from Chongqing to Zhangjiajie has been shortened to only 2 hours, and the price of a second-class seat is approximately 230 yuan.
