Tsuen Wan Station (荃灣站) is the northern terminus of the Tsuen Wan Line of the MTR. It is located in Tsuen Wan New Town, Tsuen Wan District, New Territories. It was built in the center of Tsuen Wan and west of Luk Yeung Sun Chuen and Luk Yeung Galleria. It is a MTR station, the northernmost station in the system, and the only ground level station on the Tsuen Wan Line. It was opened on May 10, 1982, and since then, it has driven the development of surrounding areas and expanded the city of Tsuen Wan to the north.

The former subway company completed the renovation of Tsuen Wan Station in 1993. The shape of the shop in the lobby is equipped with tiled roofs, beams and beams with landscape paintings, which is very distinctive. It was the only subway station with traditional Chinese characteristics in the subway network at that time[2]. At present, this station is part of the former subway network, and there are only three platforms on the ground that can directly pass through the exit of the pavement[3]. The platforms are located next to the pavement of Sai Lau Kok Road. An air-conditioned station concourse is located on the upper level of the station, with a connection to surrounding buildings by a network of footbridges outside the station.
