History

Tenpaizan Station was added to the existing Kagoshima Main Line by Kyushu Railway Company (JR Kyushu) on 11 March 1989, 94.3 km south of the line's origin at Mojikō. It is an unstaffed two-platform halt in Chikushino, Fukuoka, named for nearby Mount Tenpai on the long-distance Kyūshū hiking trail. In fiscal 2020 it was used by an average of 2,166 boarding passengers a day, ranking 64th among JR Kyushu's busiest stations.

Notes

Tenpaizan Station is named after Mount Tenpai, the local mountain, which lies on the route of a long-distance Kyūshū hiking trail.
