Guangzhou railway station (simplified Chinese: 广州火车站; traditional Chinese: 廣州火車站; Jyutping: gwong2 zau1 fo2 ce1 zaam6; Cantonese Yale: Gwóngjāu Fóchējaahm) serves the city of Guangzhou. It sits on the higher speed Guangshen railway just west of Guangzhou East. CRH trains stopping at Guangzhou exist to serve Shenzhen.

Services from this station include trains to Beijing (Jingguang railway) and Lhasa. It is served by the Guangzhou Metro on Line 2 and Line 5.

The first central railway station in Guangzhou, known as East Canton Railway Station or Dashatou railway station, was built in 1911 as the northern terminus of the Kowloon-Canton Railway.

In the 1950s, the Guangdong provincial government saw the need for a new central train station in Guangzhou to meet the increasing demands for rail travels. Construction began in 1960, but it was not completed until 1974 due to interruptions by the Great Leap Forward and the Cultural Revolution.

On April 4, 1979, with the normalisation of relations with Hong Kong, the through-train service that was suspended for over twenty-five years was resumed. Through-train services were moved to Guangzhou East in 1996.
