Gumyōji Station (KK43) is on the Keikyū Main Line in Gumyōji-chō, Minami-ku, Yokohama. It opened on 1 April 1930 as a Shōnan Electric Railway station when the Kogane-chō – Uraga / Shōnan-Zushi (today Zushi-Hayama) line was completed. The station was built on land bought from Gumyō-ji Temple's back hill, the temple providing it on condition that the station building be in temple style. After Shōnan Electric was absorbed by Keihin Electric Railway on 1 November 1941 and then by the wartime 'Great Tōkyū' on 1 May 1942, Keikyū re-emerged as the operator on 1 June 1948. The platforms were extended to 6-car length in October 1969, the temple-style original was replaced by a bridge-style building in December 1984, and 8-car-capable platforms opened on 13 December 1987, when express trains began making special stops here in the evening and during the morning rush.

The Keikyū station's original 1930 building had a striking vermilion-painted tiled roof in deliberate imitation of the temple style — honouring the condition Gumyō-ji Temple attached when it provided the back-hill land the railway bought. The temple-style building survived for 54 years before being replaced by the current bridge-station building in December 1984.
