Yuancun station (simplified Chinese: 员村站; traditional Chinese: 員村站; Cantonese Yale: Yùhnchyūn Jaahm) is an interchange station between Line 5 and Line 11 of Guangzhou Metro. It is located under the junction of Huacheng Avenue East (Chinese: 花城大道东) and Yuancun 2nd Cross Road (Chinese: 员村二横路) in Tianhe District. It lies to the east of Zhujiang New Town and to the north of Pazhou, and was opened on 28 December 2009. Line 11 started operations at this station on 28 December 2024.

Prior to the opening of Line 11, the dismantling work of the section from this station to Tianhe Park of Line 21 took place between 2 October 2024 and 27 December 2024, and the terminus of Line 21 was adjusted north to Tianhe Park. The 6B train type's shielding doors and glass panel false walls of the outer platform were removed, and then the appropriate shielding doors of the 8A train type were installed. At the same time, it was necessary to dismantle the outer platform and the third track between the station and the Tianhe Park station area and replace the signal system to Line 11 standards.
