The Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway is a supporting project for the Beijing Winter Olympics. The Beijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway runs from Beijing North Railway Station, the hub of the capital, with 10 stations. The railway is 174 kilometers long and has a maximum design speed of 350 kilometers per hour. TheBeijing-Zhangjiakou high-speed railway has two branches: Chongli Railway and Yanqing Railway, both of which are important transportation facilities for Beijing 2022 Winter Olympics.

Yanqing station is divided into "high mountain" and "flowing water". The "High Mountain" on the west side is a 30-meter five-storey building resembling a hill; The "flowing water" on the east side is the waiting hall and two floors of office areas.

Considering that the annual minimum temperature in Yanqing District can reach minus 30 degrees, in order to prevent the roof from being affected by the freezing of drainage gutter, the builders introduced snow melting and ice melting electric heat tracing system and laid heat tracing cables along the roof gutter with a total length of 3,200 meters, equivalent to 8 circles around the standard playground. Through a clever combination of technology, technology and intelligence, the roof is extremely strong, can withstand magnitude 8 earthquake, can withstand the extreme low temperature of minus 50 degrees Celsius, and can withstand the howling mountain wind of magnitude 10 or more. In terms of passenger services, Yanqing Transfer Center as a branch station of Beijing-Zhangjiakou High-speed Railway, pays more attention to providing humanized services. Passengers can experience intelligent services in the whole process from ticket purchase to arrival, arrival, waiting, ride, departure (transfer) and other links.
