Ho Man Tin (Chinese: 何文田; Cantonese Yale: Hòmàntìn) is an underground MTR rapid transit station on the Kwun Tong line and the Tuen Ma line, located beneath Valley Road in Lo Lung Hang, as part of the Sha Tin to Central Link project.[3] The station's lower platforms (serving Kwun Tong line trains) opened on 23 October 2016 along with Whampoa station as part of the Kwun Tong line extension, while the upper platforms of the Tuen Ma line opened on 27 June 2021.

Despite its name, the station is technically not located within Ho Man Tin and is more than 1 km (0.62 mi) away from the central part of Ho Man Tin between Argyle Street and Waterloo Road. The station is nearer to central part of Hung Hom while Hung Hom station is located at reclaimed area of Hung Hom Bay.[4][5]
