Arima Onsen

Departure data for this station is not available on this site.

Arima Onsen Station opened on 28 November 1928 as the terminus of the Kobe Arima Electric Railway, originally bearing the name Arima Station. It was renamed to its present form by May 1929, reflecting its position serving Japan’s historic Arima hot-spring resort in Kita-ku, Kobe. The original Art Nouveau station building stood until 1989, when the Arima Crystal Building was completed on 31 October and the station facilities relocated to its ground floor. A 1947 merger with Miki Electric Railway brought the line under what is now Kobe Electric Railway. At 357 metres above sea level the station is the highest and easternmost on the Shintetsu network, terminating the Arima Line at platform tracks usable interchangeably.

It was selected in the first round of the "100 Selected Stations of Kinki" and is also the highest-elevation station on the Arima Line.
