 The subway in Guangzhou is limited at the moment with just 4 lines in operation. It costs 4 RMB to most destinations, with outlying suburbs costing 5 or 6 RMB. Right now, the subway is a great way to beat the growing Guangzhou traffic jam.
In Guangzhou subway stations, somewhere you will find a counter which is selling the single journey tickets. Nowadays it conveniently states "Tickets" along with the Chinese. Depending on the time of day and the station you might see a queue or maybe a "huddle". We advise you to be a good foreign tourist and encourage the queue.
There are 4 lines for Guangzhou subway. You can take line 2 to Yuexiu Park station to the Liuhua Fair complex. And you can change lines in Tiyu XiLu between line 1 and line 3, in Gongyuanqian between line 1 and line 2, in Kecun between line 2 and line 3, in Wangshengwei between line 2 and line 4.
How to buy a single journey ticket?
1). Find a ticket vending machine (TVM)
2). Select your destination on the route map
3). Select the quantity of ticket you need
4). Insert bills or coins for the amount due (the TVM accept CNY 0.5 or CNY 1 coins, CNY5 or CNY10 bills only)
