Hanxi Changlong Station (Chinese: 汉溪长隆站) is an interchange station on Line 3 and Line 7 of the Guangzhou Metro that started operation on 28 December 2006. It is located under the east side of Hanxi Avenue (汉溪大道), the Xinguang Expressway (新光快速公路), and the south of Chime-Long Paradise Amusement Park in the (zh) of the Panyu District of Guangzhou. There is a free shuttle bus connecting the station with the amusement park.[1][2][3]
Before the station started operation, it was called "Hanxi Station" (汉溪站) and "Changlong Station" (长隆站) successively. The residents nearby were disappointed with the name "Changlong Station" because they felt that the name favoured the Chimelong Group, Chimelong Paradise's owner and operator. The Guangzhou Municipal Government later approved a change of name to "Hanxi Changlong Station" which satisfied both the residents and the enterprise.[4][5]
