National Exhibition and Convention Center (simplified Chinese: 国家会展中心; traditional Chinese: 國家會展中心; pinyin: Guójiā huìzhǎn zhōngxīn) is a station on Line 2 and Line 17 of the Shanghai Metro, located at the Shanghai National Exhibition and Convention Center. The station opened on March 16, 2010 as East Xujing on Line 2, and opened on December 30, 2017 as Zhuguang Road on Line 17. Both station names were combined as one on September 21, 2024.[1] The station is located in Shanghai's Xujing Town, Qingpu District.
History
[edit ]The Line 17 station opened for passenger trial operation on 30 December 2017, concurrent with the opening of the rest of Line 17. During the planning and construction stages, the station was named China Exposition North (simplified Chinese: 中国博览会北; traditional Chinese: 中國博覽會北; pinyin: Zhōngguóbólǎnhuìběi), so named because it is located north of the National Convention and Exhibition Center.[2]
Station description
[edit ]
The first train is at 5:30 a.m., and the last train is at 11:30 pm. The ride from here to Pudong Airport takes approximately 90 minutes. Zhuguang Road station on Shanghai Metro Line 17 is around 600 metres (2,000 ft) to the north, but this station is not considered an interchange station with East Xujing. Instead, passengers wishing to interchange to Line 17 from Line 2 can transfer at Hongqiao Railway Station, which is one stop to the east.[3]
Like all stations on Line 17, National Exhibition and Convention Center station is fully accessible. The platform area consists of a single island platform located underground, beneath a concourse level, which has two service counters, one at each end. There are fare controls at both the west and east ends of the concourse level. The platform area can be accessed by elevator from the concourse area within the fare-paid zone. The street level and concourse level are connected by an elevator near Exit 3, at the western end of the station. Toilets are located at the platform level within the fare-paid zone, at the east end of the platform.[4]
The station itself is located in the eastern part of Qingpu District, beneath the Songze Elevated Road along Songze Avenue, between Zhuguang Road and Panxiu Road. The station is located very close to the boundary with Minhang District.[5]
The station is known for its design elements. An 88-metre (289 ft) long mural fills the entire length of the concourse. Although an underground station, sunshine flows easily to the platform level via a panoramic sunroof, which covers the entire ceiling. The single island platform is 23 metres (75 ft) wide, and unlike other island platforms, there are no support columns along the middle of the platform. These columns were instead placed between the platform and the tracks, also serving as pilasters for the platform screen doors.[6] Porcelain art pieces are on display between the platform screen doors.[7]
In July 2018 the station won the LEED (Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design) silver prize, the most widely used green building rating system in the world, making it the first of all Metro stations in Asia to win the title.[8]

Nearby landmarks
[edit ]The station is located just northwest of the National Convention and Exhibition Center, which was the venue for the China International Import Expo in November 2018. Approximately 600 metres (2,000 ft) to the south along Zhuguang Road is East Xujing on Shanghai Metro Line 2, however this station is not considered an interchange station with Zhuguang Road Station. Passengers wishing to interchange to Line 2 from Line 17 can make their way to Hongqiao Railway Station, which is one stop to the east.[5]
