Hodogaya Station

Don’t overlook Hodogaya Station—a quiet but character-rich railway landmark built in 1920. With its vintage wooden architecture, old-school platform signage, and nostalgic train timetables still on display, this century-old station feels like a scene from a black-and-white film. Sit on the bench as Shinkansen trains roar past, and soak in the calm rhythm of life. More than a transit stop, it’s a poetic pause in the heart of the city.
