Fengbei (Chinese: 丰北) is a metro station on Line 6 of the Hangzhou Metro in China. It is located at the intersection of Pinglan Road and West Tongwen Road.[1] It opened on February 21, 2023.[2]

The southern part of Qianjiang Century City, where the station is located, is designated for the Hangzhou Qiantang Bay Future Headquarters Base (QBFHB), a future hub for headquarters of major Chinese and international companies. The Fengbei station enables the transfers between for Metro Lines 6, 11, and 15, and will serve as a starting area for QBFHB. As of 2024, the surrounding area is mostly agricultural land, so Fengbei station earned a nickname "the loneliest metro station".[3]

Design

The station is themed around "Riding the Tides" (Chinese: “弄潮”) . The purple, wave-shaped ceiling on both sides of the concourse and the central white linear folding lights resemble the surging tides of the Qiantang River. The walls and pillars of the platform reflect the colors and textures of the tidal flats. The combination of shaped light strips and stainless steel materials is filled with a modern technological atmosphere, aiming to continue the historical essence of the Qiantang River tides while also providing a sense of modernity.
