Shapingba is a metro station of the Chongqing Rail Transit system in Shapingba District, Chongqing Municipality, China.[2][3] The station began service on 28 July 2011 with the opening of Line 1 of Chongqing Rail Transit. Until the extension to Daxuecheng was completed and opened in 2012, it operated as the terminus of Line 1.
