Beijing Subway restricted stations

Beyond Pingguo Yuan, the terminus that is accessible to the public, there are three other stations on Line 1, Beijing Subway.

Restricted stations of Line 1
Sanjiadian railway station
Jingmen Railway
Sanjiadian railway station
Fengsha Railway
Heishitou
Gaojing
Fushouling
Pingguo Yuan

Gaojing and Heishitou are located in the Beijing Military Region (which is part of the Central Theater Command), therefore rendering them inaccessible to the public.

Fushouling station is under renovation.[1][2] The station will also serve the nearby Beijing Banking & Insurance Business Park (北京银行保险产业园).[3]

Fushouling station (simplified Chinese: 福寿岭站; traditional Chinese: 福壽嶺站; pinyin: Fúshòulǐng Zhàn) is under renovation.[1][2] It is actually the third last station of Line 1, Beijing Subway. The station closed on May 28, 2007.[4] In 2020, the station began renovation,[3] and it is expected that the station will open in 2021.[2]

Heishitou station (54#)

Although officially a defunct railway station (thus having no subway code number), Heishitou station (黑石头站; 黑石頭站; Hēishítou Zhàn) is often considered a disused station on Line 1 by the general public, probably due to its location on a disused China Railway military-only branch line which happens to link to line 1. There are two side platforms with space for two tracks. The (unofficial) name of the Heishitou station is derived from its proximity to the nearby Heishitou Village located in Shijingshan District, Beijing, in the Western Hills. There is a secret bunker-like facility used as an underground command centre by the Chinese military dating back to the 1950s (similar to the Pentagon), thus rendering this part of the Western Hills inaccessible to the public.

Beyond Heishitou station

After Heishitou station, there is a connection to the Sanjiadian railway station, also located in Beijing's Western Hills.
