Tayuman LRT Station is a station on the Manila LRT Yellow Line (LRT-1). Like all other LRT-1 stations, Tayuman station is above-ground. The station serves Santa Cruz in Manila and is located at the corner of Rizal Avenue and Tayuman Street. The station is named after Tayuman Street.

Tayuman station serves as the sixth station for LRT-1 trains headed for Baclaran and as the thirteenth station for trains headed to Monumento. Due to its proximity to Blumentritt station, which is north of Tayuman, the station is close to the old San Lazaro Hippodrome, where today's SM City San Lazaro sits.

[edit] Transportation links

Like its neighbor Blumentritt, commuters can take the many jeepneys or taxis to Tayuman station. Buses that ply the Taft Avenue route also stop near the station.

Because of its proximity to SM City San Lazaro, jeepneys and taxis can also take commuters to and from the station going to the mall.
