Location

History

Gojō Station opened on 29 May 1981 with the initial Kitaōji–Kyōto section of the Kyoto Municipal Subway Karasuma Line, in Shimogyō Ward, Kyōto. The underground station sits beneath the Karasuma-Gojō intersection, with an island platform serving two tracks. IC card travel using PiTaPa began on 1 April 2007, and from April 2010 the station name signage carried a paid subtitle naming the nearby corporate headquarters of Sun Chlorella. Both ticket gates operate by remote control, with staff posted only at the north gate during morning and evening rush hours. The station structure is offset south of the intersection to avoid a communal utility duct running east-west under Gojō-dōri.

Notes

Within a fifteen-minute walk lie not only the subway but also stations of JR, Hankyu, Keihan and Kintetsu, a concentration of five operators without parallel elsewhere in Kyōto.
