Hualinsi Buddhist Temple Station (simplified Chinese: 华林寺站; traditional Chinese: 華林寺站; pinyin: Huálínsì Zhàn) is a station of Guangzhou Metro Line 8, located underground on the intersection of Middle Kangwang Road, Changshou West Road, Liwan District, Guangzhou, Guangdong Province, China. The station was opened on November 26, 2020, with the opening of the northern extension of Guangzhou Metro Line 8.[1]
The station has an underground island platform. Platform 1 is for trains towards Jiaoxin, whilst platform 2 is for trains towards Wanshengwei.
In order not to affect the ground traffic of Middle Kangwang Road as much as possible during the construction of this station, and to avoid the Kangwang Road tunnel south of the station, the platform was constructed using a combination of cut and cover excavation, and the width of the central open cut part was 26 meters wide, the most spacious platform in Guangzhou Metro. In addition, the two main tracks of Line 8 need to match the direction of Kangwang Road, so both platforms 1 and 2 are curved.[2]
