Guanzhuang station[2] is a station on Line 15 of the Beijing Subway.[3] It was opened on December 28, 2014.[4]
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 Chinese: {{linktext|关|庄 and the one on the Batong Line is called Chinese: {{linktext|管|庄, but the government policy is to create English names from the pinyin transliteration of Chinese language, but without the tone markers; thus Chinese: 关庄 (Chinese: Guānzhuāng) and Chinese: 管庄 (Chinese: Guǎnzhuāng) are both rendered as Guanzhuang, making them look identical.
In December 2019, the Chinese: 管庄 (Chinese: Guǎnzhuāng) station on Batong line changed spelling to Guaanzhuang.[5]
The station has an underground island platform.
There are 3 exits, lettered A, B, and C. Exit B is accessible.
