The MTR or Mass Transit Railway is the metro of Hong Kong. It is operated by MTR Corporations Ltd., a company listed on the Hong Kong stock exchange and included in the Hang Seng Index.
The network has 6 lines:
- Kwun Tong Line: between Yau Ma Tei and Tiu Keng Leng
- Tsuen Wan Line: between Tsuen Wan and Central
- Island Line: between Sheung Wan and Chai Wan - on Hong Kong Island
- Tseung Kwan O Line: between Po Lam and North Point
- Tung Chung Line: between Tung Chung and Hong Kong station (Central)

The system utilises "Octopus cards", rechargeable contact-less smart cards that automatically calculate and deduct the fare for each trip, as well as the traditional ticketing system.
