Onagawa Station designed by architect Shigeru Ban, starting point for Onagawa tourism
About this spot
The gateway to Onagawa Town, rebuilt as a symbol of recovery from the Great East Japan Earthquake. The building features an impressive large wooden roof designed by architect Shigeru Ban, and it includes a hot spring facility within the station. From the platform, you can see Onagawa Bay, with an open view typical of a harbor town spreading out before you. The straight plaza extending from the station toward the sea is the starting point for Onagawa tourism.
