The Cempaka LRT station is a Malaysian low-rise light rapid transit (LRT) station situated near and named after the nearby Taman Cempaka neighbourhood, in Ampang Jaya, Selangor. The station is part of the LRT Ampang Line (formerly known as STAR LRT line) and was opened on 16 December 1996, as part of the first phase of the STAR LRT system's opening, alongside 13 adjoining stations along the Sultan Ismail-Ampang route.

The station is situated east of and named after the Ampang Jaya locality of Taman Cempaka to the southeast, and is within walking distance of Kampung Pandan Dalam directly north from the station, and Pandan Indah to the south. The station is accessible from two branch roads, one off Jalan Cempaka from the north and another off Jalan Pandan Indah 6/1.

The station was constructed along two leveled tracks, reusing the now defunct Federated Malay States Railway (FMSR) and Keretapi Tanah Melayu (KTM) route between Kuala Lumpur, Ampang and Salak South. The station is also located a mere 470 metres away from the neighbouring Cahaya station, which serves roughly the same locality.
