Furue Station

About This Station

Furue Station on Hiroshima's Electric Railway Miyajima Line provides light rail access approximately 45-60 minutes from central Hiroshima toward Hatsukaichi and Miyajima, one of Japan's most-visited shrines with 3+ million annual visitors. The line's 22 stations serve scenic routes between major tourist destinations. Limited express service and local-only operation at Furue constrains journey efficiency. Proximity to Miyajima's world-renowned tourism corridor provides meaningful appeal. The area gradually develops tourist accommodation and services supporting short-term rental potential. Investment appeal centers on tourism-accommodation portfolios leveraging Miyajima's global visitor base. Downside risks include seasonal tourism volatility and site-specific demand concentration.
