History
Arata-hachiman Station is a Kagoshima City Tram Taniyama Line tram stop in Arata 1-chōme, Kagoshima, served by Route 1. The stop was opened on 1 December 1912 by Kagoshima Electric Tramway as part of the original tramway, and on 1 July 1928 it was transferred to the Kagoshima City Electric Bureau (today the Kagoshima City Transportation Bureau). It has two side platforms that can be crossed at any time a tram is not passing, with approach indicators and announcements on both sides; neither manual nor powered wheelchairs can be used, because the platform width is below the regulation minimum. Nearby are the eponymous Arata Hachiman Shrine, the Kagoshima prefectural governor's official residence, Yonemori Hospital, and the Frespo Jungle Park complex with the Nishimuta Yojirō main store.
