Higher Education Mega Center South Station (simplified Chinese: 大学城南站; traditional Chinese: 大學城南站; Cantonese Yale: Daaihhohksìhng Nàahm Jaahm) is an interchange station of Line 4 and Line 7 of the Guangzhou Metro. It started operations on 26 December 2005. It is located at the underground of the south of Guangzhou Higher Education Mega Center, located on the Xiaoguwei Island in Xiaoguwei Subdistrict, Panyu District.[1]

The station was previously called Nanting Station (南亭站; Nàahmtìhng Jaahm) because of nearby Nanting Village (南亭村) on the island, before changing its name to its current name in May 2006.[2][3]
