Platforms
The station has an island platform located underground on the east side of Guangzhou Avenue Middle.
In addition, there are three tracks at the north end of the platform for train storage. In addition to a set of double stabling tracks, one of the tracks extends several hundred meters to form a double-length stabling siding. Since this station served as the northern terminus when Line 10 opens, trains on Line 10 use this set of stabling tracks to turn-back beyond the station.
Exits
The station has 5 exits.

History
During planning and construction, this station was called Guangzhou Avenue Middle station. In April 2025, the Guangzhou Municipal Transportation Bureau announced the preliminary station names for Line 10. This station is planned to continue to use the name, Guangzhou Avenue Middle. Since Guangzhou Avenue Middle is about 5.6 kilometres (3.5 mi) long and the existing Guangzhou Avenue Middle bus station is more than 3 kilometres (1.9 mi) away from the metro station, this name has sparked discussions.[3][4] Finally, in the following month, the authorities named this station Yangji East station, since it is located in the Yangji East Community of Xiancun Subdistrict and to the east of the Yangji Community of Meihuacun Subdistrict.[5][6]
The underground excavation of the station was completed on 22 April 2021.[7] The main structure of the station finished construction on 20 December 2023,[8] and the station completed the "three rights" transfer on 13 March 2025.[9] On 29 June 2025, the station opened.[1]
Future development
In the future, this station will become an interchange station with Line 26, which will be placed in parallel with Line 10. The concourse of Line 10 has reserved a transfer tunnel with Line 26.
