Hizen-Kashima Station


Hizen-Kashima Station (肥前鹿島駅, Hizenkashima-eki?) is a railway station in Kashima, Saga Prefecture. It is operated by JR Kyushu on the Nagasaki Main Line. Because this station is the closest limited express station to the Yūtoku Inari Shrine, there are many people around during the Japanese New Year.

Hizen-Kashima is an above ground station consisting of one island platform flanked by two tracks. It is a manned station that has a ticket window and checks tickets upon exiting. Around the time of the Kashima Gatalympics, a boat is on display, filled with mud. Small crabs and mudskippers live within this temporary environment.
