Ma Tau Wai (Chinese: 馬頭圍, originally 碼頭圍, historically 古瑾圍) is an area in Kowloon City District, Kowloon, Hong Kong. It was originally a walled village between present-day Argyle Street and Prince Edward Road West, east of St. Teresa's Hospital. The area of Ma Tau Wai is not as well-defined as the original village, as the geographic features have been lost. The Ma Tau Wai Road in To Kwa Wan does not pass through Ma Tau Wai proper, although it was originally intended to. Ma Tau Wai is sometimes referred to the area south of Argyle Street and north of To Kwa Wan.

Ma Tau Wai Post Office was open from 1990.03.05 to 1993.12.31; thereafter it was replaced by the newly-opened To Kwa Wan (土瓜灣) Post Office at a different address. Ma Tau Wai Post Office was located at: 馬頭圍農圃道11號.
