A transfer point on the JR Line and Keihan Line, Kyobashi Station has over 500,000 commuters daily.

The Keihan Mall is connected directly to the station and houses various stores, making it a great stop for shopping too. With the busy shopping district around the station, the name Kyobashi has become synomous with this area in particular.
