'''Beijing Chaoyang railway station'''<ref name=d1 /> ({{Zh|c=北京朝阳站 |p=Běijīng Cháoyáng Zhàn}}), formerly known as '''Xinghuo railway station''' ({{Zh|c=星火站 |p=Xīnghuǒ Zhàn}}), is a railway station in [[Chaoyang District, Beijing|Chaoyang District]], [[Beijing]]. This station is the main terminus of the [[Beijing–Harbin high-speed railway]], and one of eight main passenger-service stations of the Beijing railway hub.

==History==
Station construction began in 1966 with the proposed name of '''Xinzhuang railway station''', named after the nearby village. However, there had been a station with the same name in [[Tianjin]]. When the station opened in 1968, it was named '''Xinghuo railway station''', after the Xinghuo [[People's commune]]<ref name=bjnews2013>{{cite news|url=http://epaper.bjnews.com.cn/html/2013-08/03/content_454910.htm?div=1|title=47岁的星火站|date=2013-08-03|author=刘春瑞|work=bjnews.com.cn|quote=源于车站当时所在的星火人民公社。后来星火公社改回六里屯乡，车站仍保留了这个名字}}</ref> ({{Zh|c=星火人民公社 |s=|t=}}) (now [[Liulitun Subdistrict]]), and the Xinghuo [[People's commune]] is named after a famous article written by [[Mao Zedong]], ''A Single Spark Can Start a Prairie Fire''<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://www.marxists.org/reference/archive/mao/selected-works/volume-1/mswv1_6.htm|title=A SINGLE SPARK CAN START A PRAIRIE FIRE|website=www.marxists.org|access-date=2019-11-01}}</ref> ({{Zh|c=星星之火，可以燎原 |s=|t=}}).

Xinghuo railway station had been a passenger-service station for through trains on the [[Beijing–Baotou railway]] ([[Shuangqiao-Shahe railway]]), but all passenger services were canceled in 1996 with the speed-up projects. It has been an industrial freight station linking factories including a granary, a cotton depot, a thermal power plant, and the China National Railway Track Test Center (famous for the loop track).<ref name=":0">{{Cite web|last=Beijing railway group|date=|title=The story of the station from Xinghuo to Beijing Chaoyang|url=https://www.thepaper.cn/newsDetail_forward_10936180|access-date=2021-02-04|website=The Paper CN|language=zh}}</ref>

In 2013, Xinghuo railway station was confirmed as the largest terminus of the planned [[Beijing–Shenyang high-speed railway]] and renovations began in 2017.<ref name=":0" /> During the 2020 [[Two Sessions]], [[CPPCC]] member Pi Jianlong advised that the station name should be changed to '''Beijing Chaoyang railway station''' for the [[Chaoyang District, Beijing|Chaoyang District]] in Beijing. Investigated and surveyed by the related ministries and commanded by the [[Premier of the People's Republic of China|Premier]], the station formally changed its name to Beijing Chaoyang railway station<ref>{{Cite web|last=|first=|date=|title=The future Beijing Chaoyang railway station|url=http://mp.weixin.qq.com/s?__biz=MzA4Mzg1OTU0Mg==&mid=2650405705&idx=1&sn=6f6081fdbdf448518d36a3d33a727d2f&chksm=87fd5a70b08ad366847b8440b47dbf7c92703375fb6118e192daeefba83509d0932b8354cc34#rd|archive-url=https://archive.today/20211204144409/https://mp.weixin.qq.com/s?__biz=MzA4Mzg1OTU0Mg==&mid=2650405705&idx=1&sn=6f6081fdbdf448518d36a3d33a727d2f&chksm=87fd5a70b08ad366847b8440b47dbf7c92703375fb6118e192daeefba83509d0932b8354cc34%23rd|archive-date=2021-12-04|access-date=2021-02-04|website=Weixin Official Accounts Platform|language=zh}}</ref> in June 2020, and the former Chaoyang railway station in [[Liaoning]] Province changed its name to [[Liaoning Chaoyang railway station]].

== Design and structure ==
Beijing Chaoyang station building can be divided into the central part and the west part, in which the central part covers 110,000 square meters, and the west part covers 70,000 square meters. The architectural design theme shows the vitality of the city, satisfying the general requirements of becoming an integrated, green, warm, economic, and convenient transportation hub. The outside facade is a three-segment shape that blends traditional  culture and modernity. The glass curtain wall on the north side of the building not only broadens the view and for day lighting, but also hints at the direction of Shenyang, the other end of the line.<ref name=":1" /> The upper roof image is derived from the roofs of the ancient [[Forbidden City]].<gallery>
