The route starts in the south of Harbin, runs northward to the city center, where it turns northeast and then east. The length of the first line of the Harbin metro is 17.5 kilometers. There are 18 stations on the route for the entry and exit of passengers.
The construction of the Harbin metro was launched in the fall of 2008. For the needs of the metro, a tunnel was used, preserved under the city since the Second World War. The ten-kilometer network of evacuation routes was rebuilt into a subway.

The subway not only solved some of the problems with traffic jams and congestion on city streets, but also significantly reduced the burden on traffic police officers. In addition, the Harbin metro system is a convenient way for city visitors arriving by train to reach the city center and other areas..
