• Karasuma Line: Matsugasaki (Kyoto)

Kokusaikaikan Station opened on 3 June 1997 as the new northern terminus of the Kyoto Municipal Subway Karasuma Line when the route was extended north from Kitayama; the adjacent station on the line is Matsugasaki (K02). The station's name refers to the adjacent Kyoto International Conference Center, where the Kyoto Protocol was adopted later that year. A bus terminal and bicycle parking facility opened in front of the station on 13 January 2000, and PiTaPa contactless fares began on 1 April 2007. From April 2010, station name boards were supplemented with advertising signage for the nearby Dōshisha Iwakura Campus. The station is the northernmost subway stop in the Kansai region.
