Prince Edward Road East (Chinese: 太子道東) and Prince Edward Road West (Chinese: 太子道西) are roads in Kowloon, Hong Kong, going in an east-west direction and linking Tai Kok Tsui, Mong Kok, Kowloon Tong, Kowloon City and San Po Kong (outside the retired Kai Tak Airport).
The roads were named after Prince Edward in 1922, later Edward VIII, after his visit to Hong Kong.
Prince Edward station and the Prince Edward area in Hong Kong are both named after Prince Edward Road, rather than Prince Edward himself.
