Dabaishu Station (simplified Chinese: 大柏树站; traditional Chinese: 大柏樹站; pinyin: Dàbǎishù Zhàn) is a station on the Shanghai Metro Line 3.

Until October 2006, it was known as East Wenshui Road station, easy to be confused with not adjacent Wenshui Road station on Line 1. The name was changed according to the new convention to name metro stations after famous streets or sights nearby rather than the vertical street neighbouring the station, making it easier for visitors to find these places.
