Shuanglian (Chinese: 雙連; pinyin: Shuānglián, formerly transliterate as Shuanglien Station until 2003) is a metro station in Taipei, Taiwan served by Taipei Metro. It is a station of the Tamsui–Xinyi line and a planned transfer station with the Minsheng–Xizhi line.

The station is located underneath the metro park, near Minsheng West Road and Zhongshan North Road. The station is a two-level, underground structure with one island platform and two exits.^[3] The washrooms are inside the entrance area.

Public art in the station consists of a mural titled "Dawning Sail".^[4] Composed of porcelain enamel, the mural reflects Shuanglian's rich historical past from its role as a once-prosperous trading post on the Tamsui River to new developments in the area.

The station is a planned transfer station with the Minsheng-Xizhi Line.^[5]

• The station was originally opened on 17 August 1916 as "Soren Station" (Japanese: 雙連乘降場).
• 1943: The station re-opened after renovation.
• In the past, there was a goods loading center near the station. Thus, it became a major transfer center on the Tamsui Line.
• 15 July 1988: Closed along with the TRA Tamsui Line.

• July 1993: DORTS decided to use the station as one of the trial stations for public art installations.^[4]
