Kinzeliko (Tzihan: 五里口, literally meaning gate that is five li away [from Hartly West Gate]), previously called by its archaic French transliteration Quinzelikow, is a metro station on the Hartly Metro rapid transit system's Line 2 as well as the western terminus of Line B of the Hartly Light Rail downtown LRT network. It is located in the heart of NamQuad, Ainin's largest Namortown, and is the only station in the network with a name in the Namorese language.
Opened in January 1971, it was the southern terminus of Line 2 for six years until the line's extension to Saint-Jean-Baptiste in October 1977. Since 2005, the station has also housed the terminal of Line B of the light rail network, linking Kinzeliko to Hartly East Gate. An extension of the B line north to link up with the A line at Hartly West Gate is currently under consideration.
The station was destroyed by a truck bomb during the 2015 Hartly bombings, killing at least 65.
