Panyu railway station (Chinese: 番禺站; pinyin: Pānyǔ zhàn) is a railway station currently under construction in Panyu District, Guangzhou, Guangdong, China.

This station was originally planned to share the name "Guangzhou South" with the existing railway station. However, in August 2020, the currently under construction station was renamed Panyu.[3]
