Taoyuan HSR (Chinese: 高鐵桃園站; pinyin: Gāotiě Táoyuán Zhàn) is a railway and metro station in Taoyuan, Taiwan served by Taiwan High Speed Rail and Taoyuan Airport MRT, and is also known as Qingpu Station (Chinese: 青埔車站).[4][5]

History

On 10 November 2006, the station opened for service. On 5 January 2007, the segment from the Banqiao Station to Xinzuoying Station opened for service and trains begin stopping at the station.

The Taiwan High Speed Rail Corporation signed contracts with China Airlines for preferential services at this station for the airline's outbound passengers.[6]

The station is connected to the Taoyuan Airport MRT which began service to the station on 2 March 2017, connecting the station to the now completed Taoyuan MRT network.
