Guangzhou East was the first station in China to run high-speed trains. Recognized as an important hub on the internal railway network and one of the most important stations in Pearl River Delta Area, it's responsible for the Guangzhou to Shenzhen line, the Guangzhou to Kowloon line and the Guangzhou to Shantou line.

Guangzhou South Railway Station
Guangzhou South is a comprehensive transfer center, where passengers can change between high-speed trains to/from cities in Guangdong Province such as Shenzhen, Zhuhai, Foshan, and Zhaoqing and to/from major cities nationwide such as Beijing, Xi'an, Wuhan, and Chengdu.
