Located in the southwest of Xi'an city, Xi'an South Railway Station (Xi'annan Railway Station) is one of the central hub stations of Xi’an Chongqing High-speed Railway, Xi’an-Wuhan High-speed Railway, Xi’an-Changsha High-speed Railway and Xi’an-Chengdu High-speed Railway. The station will have 13 platforms, and the station building is expected to be 150,000 square meters.

With three platforms, the station mainly operates Xi'an-Ankang Railway. Located in the suburban area, the station is about 30 kilometers (18.6 miles) from the Bell Tower in the city center.
