Is Guangzhou Station a high-speed rail station or a railway station?

Guangzhou Station is a high-speed rail station.

Guangzhou Station, located in Guangzhou City, Guangdong Province, China, is a special-class station under the jurisdiction of China Railway Guangzhou Bureau Group Co., Ltd. The station where Guangzhou Metro Lines 2 and 5 intersect is one of the most important railway passenger stations in Guangzhou and one of the major railway hub stations in China.

As of February 2015, Guangzhou Station has 4 platforms and 7 arrival and departure lines. The lines it passes include Guangzhou-Shenzhen Railway, Beijing-Guangzhou Railway, Guangzhou-Maoming Railway, and Guangzhou-Foshan-Zhaozhou Intercity Railway. Guangzhou Station will increase to 10 platforms and 20 arrival and departure lines in the future. On November 24, 2018, Guangzhou Station was selected into the third batch of China’s “20th Century Architectural Heritage Projects” list.

Slogan on the top of the station:

The most distinctive feature of Guangzhou Station is the slogan "Unify the motherland, revitalize China" on both sides of the front of the station. After the reform and opening up, Guangzhou was at the forefront of reform and opening up. It was the first city where compatriots from Hong Kong, Macao, Taiwan and overseas Chinese entered the mainland of the motherland. Guangzhou Railway Station is also an important gateway to the south of the motherland, so this slogan is placed on the top of the station to this day.
