Admiralty (Chinese: 金鐘; Jyutping: gam1 zung1; Cantonese Yale: Gāmjūng) is an MTR station in Admiralty, Hong Kong. The station's livery is blue and white. It is a major interchange station within the MTR network, being served by the most lines of any station, at four: the East Rail line, the Tsuen Wan line, the Island line, and the South Island line. The station and surrounding area are named after HMS Tamar, once the headquarters of the Royal Navy in Hong Kong. It was built on the former site of the naval dockyards, which were built in 1878 and demolished in the 1970s. Between 2011 and 2016, the station underwent major expansion to accommodate two new sets of platforms underneath the original structure to serve two more MTR lines, the South Island line and the East Rail line (part of the Sha Tin to Central Link project). The South Island line opened in 2016, while the East Rail line platforms opened in 2022. Accommodating over 100,000 passengers per peak hour, Admiralty has since become the busiest station in the MTR network.
