Liziba is a monorail station on Line 2 of Chongqing Rail Transit in the direct-administered municipality of Chongqing, China. ^{[1] [2]} It is located in Yuzhong District and opened in 2005.

The station is unique in that it is located on the sixth to eighth floors of a 19-story residential building, with the monorail trains going through the middle of the building. It uses specialized noise reduction equipment to isolate station noise from the surrounding residence. ^{[3] [4]} Contrary to some misreporting, the station and building were actually constructed together as one whole structure, and the monorail was not retrofitted through the middle of an existing structure. ^[4]
