Metro La Raza is a station on the Mexico City Metro. It is a combined subway/surface station, located in the Gustavo A. Madero borough, in the north of Mexico City.

The station logo depicts the nearby La Raza Monument, a pyramid-shaped construction erected in honor to Mexico's many native cultures. La Raza is a transfer station that combines underground construction for Line 3 and surface construction for Line 5. The Insurgentes Metrobús bus rapid transit line also has a stop in the vicinity of Metro La Raza.

This station has the largest cultural display in the entire Metro system, known as "El Túnel de la Ciencia" (The Tunnel of Science). This permanent exhibition was installed by the Universidad Nacional Autónoma de México (UNAM) in the extraordinarily long corridor that joins the Line 3 and Line 5 platforms.

Metro La Raza has also an information desk and office with miscellaneous information about the Metro, science and more, and facilities for the handicapped.
