Ōmi-Nakashō Station - Takashima

Unmanned station. I can't buy a ticket.

Nice little station omi-nakasho with a bonus, a small village with cute house surrounded by small rice paddies that gives a beautiful landscape ? Only 2min from the station you have a small ryokan (sanshui house) which was a nice favorite for me ? With the train you can go around the biwa lake and visit the other cities around

One of the three unmanned stations along the Lake Biwa ring. A station just a short walk to the shore of Lake Okubiwa. The countryside is beautiful.

Around the station, there are temples, coffee shops and accommodations on the north side, and the countryside is spreading on the south side.

It is a station full of local feeling. It is an unmanned station, but the station is excellent. It is important to note that there are only stairs.

JR West Kosei Line station. It is an unmanned station with no station staff. There are no commercial facilities such as convenience stores around the station. Route buses arrive and depart, but depending on the system, there is only one bus per day. The surrounding area was a quiet and calm station with many rice fields.

It's an unmanned station in a rice field, but even if I'm hanging around for a long time, can I get as much as I want? I saw "boarding station certificate" for the first time!
