The Guangzhou North railway station (simplified Chinese: 广州北站; traditional Chinese: 廣州北站; pinyin: Guǎngzhōuběi Zhàn; Jyutping: gwong2 zau1 bak1 zaam6) is a railway station in Guangdong Province, China, opened in 1908. It is located in Huadu District in far northern suburbs of Guangzhou.[1]

The station is served both by the high-speed trains of the Wuhan–Guangzhou high-speed railway and by regular passenger trains on the original Beijing–Guangzhou railway running along the same route.[2]

  • Guangzhou South railway station, 17 km from central Guangzhou now receives most high speed trains to and from the city, and its opening diminished the importance of the somewhat remote Guangzhou North Station [3] Most services that stop at Guangzhou North also stop at Guangzhou South.
