Caihong Bridge Station(On Line 8, this station is called Caihongqiao) (simplified Chinese: 彩虹桥站; traditional Chinese: 彩虹橋站; pinyin: Cǎihóngqiáo Zhàn; Jyutping: Coi2hung4kiu4 Zaam6; lit. 'Rainbow Bridge') is a station on Line 8 of the Guangzhou Metro. It is situated underground near the Southwest gate of the Liuhua Lake Park.[1]

Due to construction delays, the station could not open with the rest of the northern extension of Line 8 in 2020 and was hence delayed to open on 28 September 2 years later.[2]

The station is expected to be renamed to Caihong Bridge once Line 11 opens at the end of 2024.
