With Koryu-ji Temple located immediately northwest of this station, the sight of a tram running on the tramway laid on the road in front of the two-story gate is a highlight of riding a tram on the (Randen) line of the Keifuku Electric Railroad.
駅のすぐ北西に広隆寺があり、楼門前の併用軌道を横切る電車の姿は京福電鉄（嵐電）沿線のハイライトの一つである。
