Ciaotou Sugar Refinery is a station on the Red line of Kaohsiung Metro in Ciaotou District, Kaohsiung, Taiwan. Added during the planning of the metro to fill a gap between Cingpu metro station and Ciaotou station, Ciaotou Sugar Refinery station was built near the former Ciaotou Sugar Refinery, which had been converted into the Taiwan Sugar Museum. The station opened in 2008, along with the rest of the Red line. In 2020, a stray cat named Mikan was appointed as station master, and rapidly became a symbol of the wider metro.
