Ōmiya Station (Saitama)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Omiya Station (Japanese: 大宮駅 Ōmiya Eki) is a railway station located in Omiya-ku, Saitama, Saitama, Japan. It is the busiest station in Saitama Prefecture and one of the hub stations in the Greater Tokyo Area for the East Japan Railway Company (JR East) as well as the most important gateway from Tokyo to the Tōhoku and Hokuriku regions along with Niigata and Nagano Prefectures.
Following railways are available from the station:
This station also stops local and midnight buses and intercity coaches including ones to Narita International Airport and almost domestic Haneda Tokyo International Airport. The latter are often caught in slow road traffic, so train trips including Tokyo Monorail from Tennozu Isle or Keihin Electric Express Railway from Shinagawa are the more reliable options to Haneda.
