Location
History
Naha Airport Station opened on 10 August 2003 as the western terminus of the Okinawa Urban Monorail (Yui Rail), on the inaugural Naha Airport–Shuri segment. At longitude 127°39′8″ E, it is the westernmost railway station in Japan, and is also the southernmost airport station in the country. A plaque marking the westernmost-station status was unveiled on 12 July 2004. The elevated station's ticket-gate level is linked directly to the second floor of the Naha Airport passenger terminal by a pedestrian bridge. The surrounding Kagamizu district was once a growing area for the Kagamizu radish (kaganji-deekuni), and the westernmost-station monument incorporates motifs of a monorail car and the radish.
