Las Parcelas is a metro station on the Line 5 of the Santiago Metro, in Santiago, Chile. It was opened on February 3, 2011, as part of an extension of the Line 5 from Quinta Normal metro station. It is one of the three stations built on a viaduct on the expansion.

Along with the another two elevated stops, this station features a double decker skyway, which connects the platforms to a cylindrical building. The walkway on the lower deck leads to the westbound platform, while the higher walkway crosses over the tracks and connects with the eastbound platform via two stairways and a two-stop elevator.
