Location
History
Kashiharajingū-nishiguchi Station (F27) is on the Kintetsu Minami Osaka Line in Kashihara, Nara Prefecture. The station opened on 29 March 1929 as Yamato-Ikejiri Station of the Osaka Railway when the line was extended from Furuichi to Kumedera (the present-day Kashiharajingū-mae), was renamed Kashiharajingū-nishiguchi on 1 April 1940, became part of Kintetsu's Minami Osaka Line on 1 June 1944 through the wartime mergers of Kansai Express Railway and Nankai Railway, and operations were suspended from 1 June 1945 before resuming on 25 December 1946. Kashihara — the host municipality — is the second-largest city in Nara Prefecture by population, with around 120,000 inhabitants; the city's name derives from the legend of Emperor Jimmu's enthronement at the Kashihara Palace, and the ruins of Fujiwara-kyō, the capital built by Empress Jitō in 694, lie within the city limits.
Notes
Kashihara is the legendary site of Japan's founding, and the city symbol (the kinshi, or golden kite) is taken from the bird that, according to the Emperor Jimmu story, landed on the tip of Jimmu's bow, shone with brilliant light, and drove off the soldiers of Nagasunehiko.
