Description

During early planning stages, it was known as You'anmenwai station (右安门外站).[4][5] In October 2015, it was renamed to Jingfengmen station.[6] The name "Jingfengmen" derives from the old gate in the Jin dynasty capital, Zhongdu.[6]

Trains travelling past Beijing South railway station on the current eastern section of the Line 14 use a crossover at Jingfengmen to turn around.
