Caihong Bridge Station (simplified Chinese: 彩虹桥站; traditional Chinese: 彩虹橋站; pinyin: Cǎihóngqiáo Zhàn; Jyutping: Coi2hung4kiu4 Zaam6; lit. 'Rainbow Bridge') is an interchange station between Line 8 and Line 11 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] Line 11 opened at this station on 28 December 2024.
The Caihong Bridge main substation of Lines 11 and 13 is located at the east end structure of the Lines 11 and 13 stations, and this station has also become the first station of Guangzhou Metro to have a main substation embedded on the line.[3]
