All Reviews of Hitachi Station

In winter, you can take the first train from Mito to Hitachi Station to catch the sunrise. As soon as I arrived, I saw a huge crowd packed into the front row of the viewing area. I didn’t expect so many people to come watch the sunrise!

After glancing outside and seeing the clouds were pretty thick, I figured I probably wouldn’t get great photos. So I moved outside the station first to take some wide shots of the building. When I went back inside, the crowd had gradually thinned out. Right then, the sun finally broke through the clouds, and I got to see the beautiful view where the sea and sky seemed to blend together.

The sunrise over the ocean here is a must-see. Wrapped in orange light, the whole moment feels incredibly blissful. I definitely recommend waking up early to experience it!

Japanese architectural aesthetics are famous worldwide, and this station really shows it off. The design blends glass and the surrounding scenery, and both the exterior and interior feel so modern. I couldn't help but admire the architect's skill when I visited.

The transparent and open design lets you enjoy an unbeatable ocean view! Designed and supervised by a famous female architect, it's considered one of the most beautiful train stations in the world.
