East Tsim Sha Tsui station, Underground metro station in Yau Tsim Mong District, China.
East Tsim Sha Tsui station is an underground metro station in the Yau Tsim Mong District of Hong Kong, China, with two platforms serving different line directions. It has multiple exits and underground passages that connect directly to hotels, shopping centres, and the waterfront area nearby.
The station opened in 2004, taking the place of the former Kowloon station that had closed in 1975. Its opening brought rail service back to this part of the district after nearly thirty years without it.
The station sits close to the Hong Kong Cultural Centre and the Museum of Art, both reachable on foot from its exits. Many visitors use the underground passages to move between galleries and nearby hotels without stepping outside.
Signs throughout the platforms and passages are clear and available in several languages, making it easy to find your way. During rainy weather, the underground connections are a good way to reach nearby attractions without going outside.
The station is directly linked by underground passage to the neighbouring Tsim Sha Tsui station, letting passengers move between the two without re-entering the paid zone. This connection makes transferring between lines here easier than at most other stations in the city.
