Guānzhuang station (simplified Chinese: 关庄站; traditional Chinese: 關莊站; pinyin: Guānzhuāng zhàn) is a station on Line 15 of the Beijing Subway.[1] It was opened on December 28, 2014.[2]

Name conflict

This station had the same English name as a station on the Batong line, also part of the Beijing Subway system. In Chinese this is not a problem as the station on Line 15 is called and the one on the Batong Line is called , but the government policy is to create English names from the pinyin transliteration of Chinese language, but without the tone markers; thus 关庄 (Guānzhuāng) and 管庄 (Guǎnzhuāng) are both rendered as Guanzhuang, making them look identical. In December 2019, the 管庄 (Guǎnzhuāng) station on Batong line changed spelling to Guaanzhuang;[3] but in December 2021, 关庄 and 管庄 are both changed to Guānzhuang and Guǎnzhuang respectively.[4]

The station has an underground island platform.
