Kyoto Station (Kyoto-eki), located in Kyoto, is the second-largest train station in Japan and one of the country's largest buildings.
In addition to trains the station also has a shopping mall, hotel, movie theater, museum, the Isetan department store, tourist information centers, restaurants, shops and several local government facilities under one 15-story roof.

Opening in 1997, it is 70 meters high and 470 meters from east to west, with a total floor area of 238,000 square meters. Architecturally, it exhibits many characteristics of futurism, with a slightly irregular cubic facade of plate glass over a steel frame.

Trivia[]

  • In its appearance in the Love Hina anime, the station's ground floor is wardened off by construction barriers.
  • Some Kyoto residents were largely reluctant to accept such an ambitious structure in the mid-1990s; the station's completion began a wave of new high-rise developments in the city that culminated in the 20-story Kyocera Building. Some criticize that the station was responsible for breaking down the city's traditional cityscape.
  • The station was designed by former Tokyo University professor, Hiroshi Hara, who won an international competition to decide the design of the station.
