Huadiwan Station (simplified Chinese: 花地湾站; traditional Chinese: 花地灣站; Jyutping: faa1 dei2 waan1 zaam6; Cantonese Yale: Fādéiwāan Jaahm) is a metro station on Line 1 of the Guangzhou Metro that started operations on 28 June 1997. It is situated under Huadi Avenue North (花地大道北) in the Liwan District of Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province, China. It is near the Huadi Bird Fish & Insect Market (花地花鸟虫鱼市场).[1][2]

The station is unique in being the only station on the Guangzhou Metro to use 'cut and cover' construction. The station is located in a large single-vault tunnel with two side platforms and two mezzanine-style concourses –one at each end of the platform. Half-height platform-edge-doors are used.
