Kai Tak station, Metro station in Kowloon City District, Hong Kong.
Kai Tak is an underground metro station with two levels, featuring a concourse above and an island platform below on the Tuen Ma line. The station connects to Kai Ching Estate, Muk Yuen Street, AIRSIDE shopping street, and Kai Tak Sports Park through designated pathways.
The station opened on February 14, 2020, as part of a major redevelopment of the former Kai Tak Airport site, which operated from 1925 to 1998. The airport location was transformed into an urban area after decades of aviation use.
The station features the 'Memories of Kai Tak - 1925-1998' exhibition with over 30 photographs documenting the former airport. Visitors can explore the area's past through these historical images and displays.
The station has four exits leading directly to different areas and nearby facilities. It helps to check your intended route before exiting the train to use the correct exit.
The station was built using a special construction method where the ground was excavated and then covered, a particular technique applied to this location. This approach helped integrate the station beneath an active urban area.
