Liziba is a real monorail station on Line 2 of the Chongqing Rail Transit in the municipality of Chongqing, China. It is located in the Yuzhong district, and was opened in 2005.
This station occupies the sixth, seventh and eighth floors of a 19-storey building. It took extreme and highly modern engineering solutions to isolate the station's noise from the surrounding houses.
Incredible but true, the monorail and the building were built at the same time as a single body, and not in succession. For the locals, Liziba is much more than a railway station.
