THSR Taoyuan Station (高鐵桃園站) is an underground station of the Taiwan High Speed Rail located in Zhongli District, Taoyuan City, Taiwan. It is also known as Qingpu Station (青埔車站).
Taoyuan HSR Station is a elevated station of Taoyuan Airport MRT (A18), which was under trial operation.
On November 10, 2006, the station opened for service. On January 5, 2007, the segment from the Banqiao Station to Xinzuoying Station opened for service and trains begin stopping at the station.
The Taiwan High Speed Rail Corporation signed contracts with China Airlines for preferential services at this station for the airlines' outbound passengers.
