Guanzhou Station (Chinese: 官洲站; Cantonese Yale: Gūnjāu Jaahm) is a station of Line 4 of the Guangzhou Metro. It started operations on 26 December 2005. It is located at the underground of the central part of Guanzhou Island in Haizhu District.[1] It was constructed to cope with the Guangzhou International Biological Island,[2] a science and technology development zone led by biological industry that opened in 2011.[3][4]

Before the station opened, no land transport was provided between Guanzhou Island and Guangzhou urban. Only ships were available to provide the transport service for the island.
