History
Line 6
This station first appeared in the 2003 subway plan and was one of the intermediate stations of Line 4 on Kaichuang Avenue. In 2006, Luogang District chose Line 6, which directly leads to downtown Guangzhou, to connect the central area of Luogang, and planned the second phase of Line 6 to extend significantly eastward from Gaotangshi to replace the Kaichuang Avenue section of Line 4. On 18 October 2009, the station took the lead in starting construction as the second phase of the experimental site of Line 6 and topped out before the 2010 Guangzhou Asian Games. In September 2011, the Guangzhou Civil Affairs Bureau announced the initial station name of the Luogang section of Line 6, and the name of this station remained unchanged.[3]
On 28 December 2016, the station opened with the opening of the second phase of Line 6.[4]
Line 7

In response to the merger of the former Huangpu District and Luogang District into the new Huangpu District in 2015, the line plan of the Huangpu section for Line 7 was also significantly extended from Dashadong to the north, and the line was originally planned to terminate at this station and intersect with Line 6. This was the case until 2016, when the northward extension to Shuixi and the finalized Shuibei Station (now Yanshan) was implemented, which meant the station was also planned to be changed to an intermediate station. This corresponding section was now added to the second phase of Line 7 and was subsequently implemented.[5]
In order to cooperate with the construction of the transfer channel, the original Exit C of Line 6 was closed and demolished on 28 July 2021, and the entrance/exit was rebuilt near Huixing Road. Some areas of the Line 6 concourse have also been enclosed on 28 November 2023 to accommodate the access of the Line 7 station.[6]
In August 2022, the main structure of the Line 7 station was topped out.[7] The station completed the "three rights" transfer on 31 October 2023.[8]
On the morning of 28 December 2023, Guangzhou Metro held an opening event at this station. At 12:00 on the same day, the Line 7 station section officially opened with the opening of the second phase of Line 7, and the station became a transfer station.[9]
Future development
Line 17 and Line 37
According to the "Guangzhou Urban Rail Transit Network Planning Plan" (2018-2035) approved by the Guangzhou Municipal Government in November 2020, two high-speed metro Lines 17 and 37 will set up a station here in the future. However, the relevant plan has not yet been implemented and there is still a possibility of change.[10]
