History

In the initial planning of Phase 2 of Line 7, this station was not part of the plan. In order to develop the superstructure of the Shuixi Stabling Yard, the line was extended to Shuixibei Station, which was eventually implemented. In December 2021, the main structure of the site topped out.[3]

This station was called Shuixibei station when it was planned and constructed. On 27 February 2023, the Guangzhou Civil Affairs Bureau announced the initial naming of the second phase of Line 7. Because the station was the location of Yanshan Village before the start of construction, it was renamed to Yanshan station in accordance with Article 5 (1) of the "Guangzhou Metro Station Naming Rules".[4]

The station completed the "three rights" transfer in November 2023.[5] At 12:00 on December 28, the station was put into use with the opening of Line 7 Phase 2.[6]
