Caochangmen/NUA/JSSNU station (Chinese: 草场门·南艺·二师站), also known simply as Caochangmen station, is a station on Line 4 of the Nanjing Metro, and a planned interchange station with the future Line 7. It opened on January 18, 2017 alongside seventeen other stations as part of Line 4's first phase.[1] The station is oriented on an east–west axis, underneath Beijing West Road and the Caochangmen bypass tunnel. The station is named after the tunnel and two nearby universities: the Nanjing University of the Arts and the Jiangsu Second Normal University. Caochangmen Station has the longest name of any station on the Nanjing Metro network.[2]
