Tai Po Market or Tai Po Hui (Chinese: 大埔墟) is the name of an area within the modern-day Tai Po New Town in the Tai Po District, in the New Territories, Hong Kong. However, its exact location changed from time to time. It is considered as the town centre of the area known as Tai Po. The area was first established as a market town, at the location of the modern-day residential and commercial area Tai Po Old Market, or Tai Po Kau Hui (大埔舊墟), which is near the present-day area Tai Wo (Tai Wo Estate). Later on, a new market, Tai Wo Shi (太和市) was established across the river and when the Kowloon-Canton Railway British Section was opened in 1910, it was the site of a flag station named Tai Po Market.
