Tai Wo Station (Chinese: 太和站, Jyutping: taai3 wo4, Pinyin: Tàihé) is a station on Hong Kong's East Rail Line.

It was opened in 1989 as an intermediate station of the East Rail Line upon the completion of the Tai Wo Estate in Tai Po New Town. Outside the railway station is the only purpose-built Ronald McDonald House in Hong Kong, which was featured in many of its TV commercials.
