Mikunigaoka Station (Osaka)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Mikunigaoka Station (三国ヶ丘駅, -eki) is a junction between the West Japan Railway Company (JR West) Hanwa Line and the Nankai Electric Railway Koya Line. While It is served by JR Rapid trains, only Nankai Semi-Expresses and Locals serve this stop. It is an example of the competition arising where different companies serve the same station.
Mi means 3 in Japanese, while kuni means "nation" and gaoka means "hill".
Mikunigoaka is part of Sakai-ku, Sakai, Osaka. Sakai itself is much older than Osaka, and Mikunigaoka is near the ancient tombs in Mozu.
Mikunigoaka itself is nondescript, not having many shops or other landmarks.
