The Taipei Metro Yongning Station is a station of the Tucheng Line (Blue Line) located in Tucheng District, New Taipei City, Taiwan. It served as the southern terminal station before the opening of the Dingpu Station in 2015.

The station is a two-level, underground station with an island platform and four exits. It is located at the intersection of Zhongyang Rd. and Chengtian Rd.

Exhibits of artifacts from nearby Zhanlong Mountain and Tudigong Mountain, which were discovered close to Yongning Station, are on display. The theme for the artifacts is "Time & Debris". The two main pieces are called "The Splinter of Time" and "86400". Both pieces seek to express the sensation of time, with "86400" signifying the number of seconds in a day. It was completed in March 2006 and cost NT$4,000,000.
