Trains running on the line will initially travel at a top speed of 300 kilometers per hour, the company said, but its maximum designed speed is 350 km/h.
A section of the route, from Harbin to Shenyang, Liaoning, was put into operation in 2012. Another section from Shenyang to Chengde, Hebei, began service in 2018. The 192-km section from Chengde to Beijing opened on Friday.
Most of the southbound services will terminate at the new Beijing Chaoyang station.
