**Katipunan station** is an underground [Light Rail Transit](/source/Manila_Light_Rail_Transit_System) (LRT) station located on the [LRT Line 2](/source/LRT_Line_2) (LRT-2) system in [Loyola Heights](/source/Quezon_City#Loyola_Heights), [Quezon City](/source/Quezon_City). It is the only underground station in the entire line. The station is named because of its location on [Katipunan Avenue](/source/Katipunan_Avenue), one of Quezon City's main thoroughfares. The avenue is in turn named after the [Katipunan](/source/Katipunan) revolutionary society.

Katipunan station serves as the tenth station for trains headed to [Antipolo](/source/Antipolo_station) and the fourth station for trains headed to [Recto](/source/Recto_station).

This station should not be confused with the planned Katipunan station of the [Metro Manila Subway Line 9](/source/Metro_Manila_Subway_Line_9), to be built on [Camp Aguinaldo](/source/Camp_Aguinaldo) property near the other end of [Katipunan Avenue](/source/Katipunan_Avenue), also in Quezon City.

The station was temporarily closed due to a fire which affected two [rectifiers](/source/Rectifier) located between the Katipunan and Anonas stations on October 3, 2019.[1] The station was reopened on January 22, 2021 after repairs to the rectifiers were completed.[2]

## Nearby landmarks

The station's south entrance is located beside the [Philippine School of Business Administration](/source/Philippine_School_of_Business_Administration), while the north entrance is adjacent to St. Bridget School.

Because of its location near Katipunan Avenue, the station is also proximate to the [Ateneo de Manila University](/source/Ateneo_de_Manila_University).

Commuters also get off at Katipunan station to ride a jeepney or tricycle to the [University of the Philippines Diliman](/source/University_of_the_Philippines_Diliman) and [Miriam College](/source/Miriam_College), both of which lie on Katipunan Avenue.

## Transportation links

Buses, taxis, jeepneys and tricycles are used to navigate the Katipunan area. Commuters headed to the area's universities, such as [Ateneo de Manila](/source/Ateneo_de_Manila_University), [Miriam College](/source/Miriam_College), and [University of the Philippines Diliman](/source/University_of_the_Philippines_Diliman), have to transfer to reach the campuses, since they lie some distance from the station.

A bus stop of the Quezon City Bus Service Route 3 can be found right outside the station's north entrance.
