Baclaran station is an elevated Light Rail Transit (LRT) station located on the LRT Line 1 (LRT-1) system in Pasay. Situated on the last stretches of Taft Avenue right at the border with Baclaran, Parañaque, it is the current southern terminus of the line. The terminal is named after the famous shopping district of the same name, which is located on the borders of the cities of Pasay and Parañaque.

Baclaran is one of the four LRT-1 stations serving Pasay; the others are Gil Puyat, Libertad, and EDSA. The line's depot, where its trains are stored, maintained and cleaned, is located near the terminal.

The terminal is near one of the country's most famous landmarks, the National Shrine of Our Mother of Perpetual Help, widely known as the Baclaran Church. It is also near numerous dry goods and flea markets (tiangges), selling everything from clothes and electronics to home decorations and traditional medicine. It is also interconnected to adjacent shopping malls such as MyMall and Baclaran LRT Shopping Mall.

Baclaran Terminal is a major transportation hub, with many buses and jeepneys terminating here. Buses coming from the terminal usually head to points south of Manila and the province of Cavite. Jeepneys that stop here usually go to various destinations in Metro Manila (Las Piñas, Parañaque, and Muntinlupa to the south; Manila, Pasay, Quezon City, and Caloocan to the north) and the province of Cavite. Taxis also ply for hire near the station, with dedicated taxis available for passengers heading to Ninoy Aquino International Airport, which is only about 2 kilometers (1.2 mi) from the station. Cycle rickshaws or pedicabs and tricycles can also be used to navigate the interior streets of Baclaran and Santo Niño in Pasay from the station.

The station's southern terminus designation is set to end once the Line 1 South Extension, also known as the South Extension Project or Cavite Extension Project, opens. Construction officially commenced on May 7, 2019 after the right-of-way of the project was "freed from obstructions".^[1] The line is set to extend all the way to Bacoor, Cavite with the first station south of Baclaran being Redemptorist station.
