(hence the name of the station), and opened in November 2010 with the opening of the Luzhou Line and the Taipei City section of the Xinzhuang Line.[4][5]

The Xinzhuang Line station is 191 meters in length and 32 meters wide, while the Songshan Line station is 202 meters in length and 26 meters wide.[6] It has eight entrances, two accessibility elevators, and four vent shafts.[4] Two of the entrances and a vent shaft are integrated with joint development buildings.

The theme for the Songshan Line station is "Metropolitan Images of Daily Life" (都會眾生相).[6] It uses four elements (earth, fire, water, wind) to present surreal situations of the combination of city and nature.
