History edit

The station was previously named as Beigangzi (Chinese: 北岗子; pinyin: Běigāngzi). In July 2023, the station was proposed to be renamed as Xiyangba (Chinese: 西阳坝; pinyin: Xīyángbà), named after the ancient Xiyang Dam (simplified Chinese: 西阳坝; traditional Chinese: 西陽壩).[2] The station was officially named as Dongbaxi on 3 January 2024.[1]
