Tsim Sha Tsui is an MTR station on the Tsuen Wan Line. The station, originally opened in 1979 on the Kwun Tong Line, serves the area of Tsim Sha Tsui. About 500,000 passengers (including those who use single-journey tickets and Octopus cards) use this station daily.

East Tsim Sha Tsui Station on the East Rail Line, opened on 24 October 2004, is connected to this MTR station. The station now serves as the interchange station between the East Rail Line, and was once planned to be the future interchange to the once-proposed Canton Road Station of the Kowloon Southern Link - an extension of the West Rail Line.
