A number of well-known brands, including Guangzhou Restaurant, the Cantonese morning tea restaurant Diandude, and Bingsheng Pinwei Restaurant, have settled in the integrated transportation hub in the Guangzhou International Financial City in Tianhe district.

The hub, also known as the Financial City Square, is scheduled to finish construction by the end of this year and open to the public in November this year. It will cover a combined floor space of nearly 85,000 square meters and will integrate shopping, leisure, and retail outlets and public transport transfers.

By connecting with the east loop of the Guangzhou-Foshan Intercity Rail, the hub will allow people to travel to the Guangzhou South Railway Station in just 15 minutes and to the Baiyun International Airport in 20 minutes.
