Shanghai Metro Line 3

 South Railway Station – North Jiangyang Rd.


(Identification Color: yellow         )


Shanghai metro line 3 which is formerly known as Pearl Line (Mingzhu Line) has been in operation since 2000. It extends 40.3 kilometers (25 miles) from North Jiangyang Rd. in the northern Baoshan District to South Railway Station in the southern Xuhui District. It covers 29 stations including some at Shanghai's popular attractions and transportation hubs such as South Railway Station, Zhongshan Park, Shanghai Railway Station and Hongkou Football Stadium.

At present, Line 3 includes two sections:
1. Part 1: South Railway Station ↔ Jiangwan Town (Starting Time: 2000.12)
2. Part 2 (North Extended Section): Jiangwan Town ↔ North Jiangyang Rd. (Starting Time: 2006.12)
It will be extended north to Baosteel Group in the future.

Now Line 3 shares a section of subway line and nine stations (Baoshan Rd., Shanghai Railway Station (North Square), Zhongtan Rd., Zhenping Rd., Caoyang Rd., Jinshajiang Rd., Zhongshan Park, West Yan'an Rd. and Hongqiao Rd.) with the circular Line 4.
See metro maps for reference.

Questions & Answers on Shanghai Metro Line 3
Asked by Betty Li from CANADA | Nov. 13, 2019 10:29Reply
Are there taxis available at Shanghai Baoyang Rd. station?
We are thinking of taking the Maglev train from the airport and then subway to the Baoyang Rd. Station on Line 3 before catching a cab to our hotel which is nearby.

It's too far to walk with 2 suitcases. Are there taxis available in that area on a Saturday night about 8pm?

Thank you very much. Is there an actual taxi stand or do we need to flag one down off the street?
