Tsurumai Station, Railway station in Naka-ku, Japan.
Tsurumai Station is a railway station in Naka-ku with two elevated side platforms and the main building situated below them. It connects multiple transportation lines serving the Nagoya area.
The station began operations in 1937 as part of the Japanese Government Railways network. Subway services were added 40 years later.
The name Tsurumai comes from the Japanese word for crane dance, linking this station to the traditional respect for cranes as symbols of longevity and good fortune. Visitors can sense this meaning reflected in the station's design and details.
The station has automated ticket machines and TOICA card services for easy payment. From here, visitors can reach Nagoya University Hospital and Tsuruma Park through separate faregates.
The station functions as a transfer point between two separate rail networks that operate independently. This separation means passengers must pass through the faregates when changing between lines.
