Yunjinlu station (simplified Chinese: 云锦路站; traditional Chinese: 雲錦路站; pinyin: Yúnjǐnlù Zhàn; lit. 'Yunjin Road station'), is a station of Line 2 of the Nanjing Metro. It started operations on 28 May 2010 along with the rest of Line 2.[1][2]

Known as Chating station (茶亭站; Chátíng Zhàn) during planning stages, it was renamed Yunjinlu station in 2007 to promote the accession of yunjin (brocade), a product characteristic of Nanjing, to the UNESCO Intangible Cultural Heritage Lists.[3] The station is decorated with a Qingming theme.[4]
