Xi'an Qujiang Sightseeing Monorail

The Xi'an Qujiang Sightseeing Monorail (Chinese: 西安曲江观光轻轨; pinyin: Xī'ān Qǔjiāng Guānguāng Qīngguǐ) is a monorail line in Qujiang New DistrictofXi'an. The line is a broken loop on the edge of the Nanhu (南湖) public park. ^[1]

The system was completed in 2012, but did not receive approval for operations until 16 January 2015. After three months of operation service was suspended due to piles from the piers interfering with construction of metro line 4. In 2018, the western section of the route including two stations have been demolished. The single track had previously formed a closed loop.^[2]

After being re-furbished for bi-directional traffic, installing a passing loop between stations City-wall Relic Park East and Changguan Lou, the line was re-opened to public on 1 May 2023.^[3]

The three trains were built by Intamin, of the variety P8/48. Each train can carry 48 passengers. The line has a support column every 15 meters.
