Guangzhou East Station
As one of Guangzhou's main transport hubs, Guangzhou East Station is as sprawling, chaotic, and confusing as you would expect. The station is situated facing CITIC Plaza and consists of hundreds of taxis waiting in line.
Inside there are several hallways and ticketing areas. If you are going to Hong Kong then head towards the Hong Kong KCR entrance, which can be found upstairs. If you are going elsewhere then you should stay downstairs and try and find the appropriate ticket stall and platform.
