Dongcha railway station (simplified Chinese: 东岔站; traditional Chinese: 東岔站; pinyin: Dōngchà Zhàn) is a railway station on the Baoji–Lanzhou high-speed railway in Maiji District, Tianshui, Gansu. The station opened on 6 May 2019.[1]

It is located 22 minutes along the line from Tianshui South railway station and 20 km by road from Dongcha town.[2] Its location on a tall viaduct near Jinlongshan Scenic Area has led it to be nicknamed the 'most beautiful high speed rail station in China'.[3]
