Dabaishu (simplified Chinese: 大柏树; traditional Chinese: 大柏樹; pinyin: Dàbǎishù) is a station on the Shanghai Metro Line 3. The station opened on 26 December 2000 as part of the initial section of Line 3 from Shanghai South Railway Station to Jiangwan Town.^[1]^[2]

Until October 2006, it was known as East Wenshui Road station (simplified Chinese: 汶水东路; traditional Chinese: 汶水東路; pinyin: Wènshuǐ Dōng Lù),^[3] which could be confused with Wenshui Road station on Line 1. The name was changed according to the new convention to name metro stations after famous streets or sights nearby rather than the vertical street neighbouring the station, making it easier for visitors to find these places.
