Bao'an Railway Station was originally built in 1899 (Meiji 32) and was first named "Cheluqian Station." It was located about 1.5 kilometers south of its current location. In 1914, the station was relocated to its present site to support transportation needs for the Cheluqian Sugar Refinery (now Rende Sugar Factory). After World War II, Cheluqian Village was renamed Bao'an Village, and in 1962, the station was also renamed Bao'an Station. Bao'an Railway Station is the most well-preserved wooden train station from the Japanese colonial period still standing in Taiwan. The station building was constructed using Alishan cypress and retains its original appearance to this day. With its unique architectural style and elegant design, it has been designated a tourist station by the Taiwan Railways Administration. It is also famously paired with Yongkang Station for the commemorative “Yong-Bao An-Kang” tickets, symbolizing blessings of safety and wellness.
