Toyama Station
Toyama’s main gateway, with easy access to central Toyama City.
Toyama Station is a key transport hub linking travel across Toyama Prefecture and beyond, served by the Hokuriku Shinkansen, JR conventional lines, and Ainokaze Toyama Railway. It also features a rare design in Japan, with a streetcar running north–south through the station for easy travel around the city.
Rebuilt for the opening of the Hokuriku Shinkansen in 2015, the station building feels bright and open thanks to its expansive glass windows. Inside the station, Toya Marche brings together Toyama specialties and local products. With around 50 shops, you can enjoy local favorites like white shrimp tempura rice bowls and Toyama Black ramen, and pick up souvenirs such as local sake.
In March 2022, a station complex with shops and accommodations celebrated its grand opening, making Toyama Station an even better base for sightseeing. Maroot, spanning floors 1 to 4, offers a wide range of stores, from fashion and lifestyle goods to cosmetics and dining.
Another plus: popular spots like Fugan Canal Kansui Park and the Toyama Prefectural Museum of Art and Design are within walking distance.
