Station overview
This is a two-level, underground station with an island platform and four exits.[2] It is 206 metres long and is located at the intersection of Jhongjheng 4th Rd and Jhonghua 3rd Rd.[3]
During the opening of the station, it was named City Council station. However, after the merging of Kaohsiung City and Kaohsiung County in 2010, the Kaohsiung City Council was relocated to the original Kaohsiung County Council, located near Fongshan West metro station, so it was marked with "former site" at the end of the station name to avoid confusion. However, the name of the station remains unchanged.
It was renamed Cianjin station in 2024.
