Guiyang City Map: Stations, Airport & Metro
To help you navigate Guiyang more easily, we’ve prepared Guiyang City Maps that mark its major transport hubs, including railway stations, the international airport, and metro lines.

From the map, you can see that Guiyang Longdongbao International Airport (贵阳龙洞堡机场) is located in the southeastern suburbs, about 11 km (25–30 minutes) from the city center by car or metro. It’s the main air gateway to Guizhou and connects Guiyang with dozens of domestic and international destinations.
You can also find four major railway stations on the map:
- Guiyang Railway Station (贵阳站) – centrally located, serving conventional trains and a few high-speed services.

- Line 1: North–South backbone line, passing key stops like Guiyang North Station and the city center.
- Line 2: Runs east–west, connecting with other metro lines and covering many downtown areas.
- Line 3: Connects more southern districts and links with Line 1 and 2.
