To Kwa Wan (Chinese: 土瓜灣) is an underground MTR rapid transit station in Hong Kong on the Tuen Ma line. It is located beneath Ma Tau Wai Road in central To Kwa Wan, Kowloon City District. The station was built as part of the Sha Tin to Central Link (SCL) project, and opened on 27 June 2021[2] along with the rest of phase 2 of the Tuen Ma line (Sung Wong Toi–Hung Hom). The station was constructed by a Samsung–Hsin Chong joint venture.[3] When the station was originally being built, the planned name of the station was Mau Tau Wai (Chinese: 馬頭圍) before being changed to its current one in 2017.
