Hachimanmae Station (Kyoto Prefecture) on the Kurama Line of the Eizan Electric Railway is closer to Miyake Hachimangu Shrine, from which the station name was originated, but Miyakehachiman Station leads to an official approach (Omotesando) to the shrine, and a vermillion O-torii (gateway) of the shrine can be seen from the station in the northerly direction.
駅名の由来となった三宅八幡宮へは、叡山電鉄鞍馬線の八幡前駅(京都府)の方が近いが、三宅八幡宮への正式な参道（表参道）はこちら側からであり、駅前から北側に三宅八幡宮の朱塗りの大鳥居が見える。
