Baita railway station (Chinese: 白塔站) is a former passenger station of Jingbao Railway in Inner Mongolia.[citation needed] Currently, Baita is used primarily as a freight station. In 2014, the station was announced as a 'Key Cultural Relic' of Inner Mongolia.[1] In 2019, this certification was upgraded to that of a Major Historical and Cultural Site Protected at the National Level.[2]

The station name is derived from the nearby Baita pagoda.
