Hiroden-Miyajima-guchi

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

Hiroden-Miyajima-guchi Station (M38) is the terminus of the Hiroden Miyajima Line in Miyajima-guchi 1-chōme, Hatsukaichi, Hiroshima (the gateway to UNESCO-listed Itsukushima Shrine via the Miyajima ferries). It opened on 1 February 1931 as Densha-Miyajima Station when Hiroshima Gas & Electric Tramway extended the line from Shin-Miyajima, completing the Miyajima Line; the name distinguished it from the JGR's own Miyajima Station. The Hatsukaichi-to-here section was lifted to single track in July 1944 for wartime materials, restored to double in July 1950. Renamed Hiroden-Miyajima on 1 June 1961, then Hiroden-Miyajima-guchi on 1 November 2001 to mirror the JR station's earlier rename. On 2 July 2022 the station was relocated to the former Miyajima-guchi Momiji Honjin site beside the ferry terminal, switching to a four-platform stub layout with alphabet (A–F) bay labels.

After the July 2022 relocation, Hiroden-Miyajima-guchi's six boarding positions were given letters rather than numbers, running A to F from the seaward (eastern) side. Platforms A and B flank the same seaward track, A serving as the alighting side and B as the boarding side, while trains on the landward track use platform E, and platform F is normally left unused.
