Guomao (Simplified Chinese: 国贸; Traditional Chinese: 國貿; pinyin: guó mào) is an area in Beijing close to Dabeiyao. The China World Trade Centre is located here.

"Guomao" is the Chinese language abbreviation for the Chinese name of the China World Trade Center (Simplified Chinese: 中国易中心; Traditional Chinese: 中國貿易中心; pinyin: Zhōngguó guómàoyì zhōngxīn).

Guomao (or the "International Trade Centre", as per the Beijing subway announcements) is also the name of a Beijing subway Line 1 station.

Additionally, Guomao is also the name of a ring road overpass on the 3rd Ring Road. Guomao Bridge (which carries the ring road) runs above Dabeiyao Bridge and connects to the latter, which carries Jianguo Road.

Guomao is in the vicinity of the Beijing CBD.
