\u25a0What is Koshien Stadium? How did it get its name?<\/h2>\n
Before we get into the transportation details, first let’s take a look at Koshien Stadium, what it is and some of the history behind the ballpark.
\nKoshien for short, this baseball field opened in 1924 so it is getting ready to turn 100!<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n
The origin story goes that the Toyonaka Field and the Naruo Field, where the national junior high school baseball tournament (now the National High School Baseball Championship) used to be held, had grown too small. High school baseball was so popular at the time that the existing fields couldn\u2019t hold all the spectators.
\nKoshien was completed in 1924. On the Chinese zodiac, this year is considered extremely auspicious. It is the first year of the 60-year sexagenary cycle denoted with the characters \u7532\u5b50 (Wood Rat), pronounced Koshi in Japanese. Throw on an \u5712 for park and you get \u7532\u5b50\u5712\/Wood Rat Park\/Koshien.
\nReal fans may be interested to know that you can still visit the site of the old Toyonaka Field. There is now a memorial park, which features the brick walls and pillar from the original baseball field.<\/p>\n
![\"High](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img03.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
Koshien has become somewhat of a holy ground for high school baseball players and its the home field for the Hanshin Tigers making it the most well-known stadium in Japan.
\nThe stadium also hosts Koshien Bowl the Japanese American college football national championship game, where Japanese university teams compete to see who is the best in that all-American sport.
\nThe most bizarre event ever held here has to be the National Ski Jump Tournament.<\/p>\n
\u25a0 The Hanshin Station is close, but JR is a trek<\/h2>\n
Koshien Stadium is located in the city of Nishinomiya, in Hyogo Prefecture, which is right between Osaka and Kobe. The location is so convenient, it is a popular place to live.
\nThe nearest station is Koshien Station on the Hanshin Railway. The Direct Limited Express (Chokuts\u016b Tokky\u016b<\/em>), Hanshin Limited Express (Hanshin Tokky\u016b<\/em>), Regional Limited Express (Kukan Tokky\u016b<\/em>), Express (Ky\u016bk\u014d<\/em>), Regional Express (Kukan Ky\u016bk\u014d<\/em>), Local (Futs\u016b<\/em>) Hanshin trains all stop at Koshien Station. The only trains that don\u2019t stop are a limited number of the Direct Limited Express (Chokuts\u016b Tokky\u016b<\/em>) trains and the Regional Express (Kukan Ky\u016bk\u014d<\/em>) from Osaka-Umeda Station.<\/p>\n![\"View](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img04.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
This is the view from the station. Koshien is just on the other side of that expressway.<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img05.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
It can get pretty crowded when there is a Tigers game or during the high school tournament, but its an easy walk.
\nThe one thing you don\u2019t want to do is go to JR K\u014dshienguchi Station. It\u2019s really far from the stadium!<\/p>\n
![\"JR](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img06.jpg\")
\n![\"JR](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img07.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
You\u2019d think its close because the station has Koshien in the name, but it’s actually 2.5 km from the baseball stadium. That would take about 30 minutes to walk.<\/p>\n
![\"Getting](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img08.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
Apparently people get off at this station and ask where the stadium is all too frequently. So be careful this doesn\u2019t happen to you!
\nAnd to put in a word for JR, it\u2019s not that they were trying to trick people when they named their station. When the stadium was constructed, city planners took inspiration when they named the surrounding neighborhoods.<\/p>\n
\u25a0Getting there from Kobe<\/h2>\n
Coming from the West, say Kyushu or Hiroshima, you\u2019d want to take the Shinkansen and get off at Shin-K\u014dbe Station. There is one thing you need to be careful of when you\u2019re traveling from Kobe\u2014that\u2019s making sure you get on the Hanshin Railway.<\/p>\n
![\"Hanshin](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img09.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
Three different rail companies connect Kobe and Osaka\u2014JR, Hankyu, and Hanshin. But the only one that passes directly in front of Koshien Stadium is the Hanshin. However, they all meet at Sannomiya Station (the main station in Kobe), so it\u2019s easy to make a mistake. Don\u2019t get on the wrong train-line. <\/p>\n
![\"Getting](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img10.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\u3010From Kobe\u3011<\/h3>\n
Hanshin Railway: Sannomiya Station \u2192 Koshien Station
\n\u2028Train fare: \u00a5270
\n\u2028Time onboard: Approx. 18 min.<\/b><\/p>\n\u25a0Getting there from Osaka, departing from Umeda<\/h2>\n
There are many ways to get to Koshien from Osaka, but no matter how you go, you need to take the Hanshin. The first route I\u2019ll show you starts at Osaka-Umeda Station. This is the most direct route, but depending on where you are in the city, you might want to take a different route.<\/p>\n
![\"Hanshin](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img11.jpg\")
\n![\"Hanshin](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img12.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
Umeda is big and there are many different stations here too. The JR station (\u014csaka Station), the Hankyu station (Osaka-Umeda Station), the Osaka Metro stations (Umeda Station), (Higashi-Umeda Station), and (Nishi-Umeda Station). This is the largest terminal in West Japan. A lot of passengers transfer to the Hanshin Railway here.
\nIf you\u2019re coming from Kyoto, you would get off at JR Osaka Station to transfer to the Hanshin Railway Osaka-Umeda Station.
\nIf you\u2019re on the Shinkansen, you would get off at Shin-\u014csaka Station and take the JR to \u014csaka Station or take the Osaka Metro to Umeda Station, before transferring to the Hanshin Railway Osaka-Umeda Station. <\/p>\n
![\"How](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img13.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\u3010From Kobe\u3011<\/h3>\n
Hanshin Railway: Osaka-Umeda Station \u2192 Koshien Station\u2028
\nTrain fare: \u00a5270
\n\u2028Time onboard: Approx. 12 min.
\n<\/b><\/p>\n\u25a0Getting there from Osaka, departing from Namba<\/h2>\n
The second route from Osaka would be convenient if you are in the Minami District, so that means Dotonbori, Namba, Shinsaibashi, etc.
\nOsaka Namba Station is where the Hanshin meets Kintetsu Railway. These two railways connect and share the same tracks and carriages so you can take a Kintetsu train straight through Osaka Namba Station all the way to Koshien.<\/p>\n
![\"Osaka-Namba](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img14.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
If you\u2019re coming from Nara, this is the easiest way to get to Koshien. It\u2019s a straight shot.<\/p>\n
![\"How](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img15.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
There are lots of stations nearby that would be easy to transfer from. Osaka Metro Namba Station and Osaka Metro, Shinsaibashi Stations, Nankai Namba Station, and JR Namba Station are all within walking distance. So for example, if you are coming from somewhere in the south, like Kansai International Airport, then you would take the Nankai train to Namba Station and transfer to the Hanshin. Easy peasy!<\/p>\n
![\"signage](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img16.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
Pictured here is the Osaka Metro Namba Station. There are many signboards within the station that show how to get to the Hanshin line. It\u2019s a pretty smooth transfer.<\/p>\n
\u3010From Kobe\u3011<\/h3>\n
Hanshin Railway: Osaka-Namba Station \u2192 Koshien Station\u2028
\nTrain fare: \u00a5360
\n\u2028Time onboard: Approx. 25 min.
\n<\/b><\/p>\n\u25a0Getting there from Osaka, changing trains in Nishi-Kujo<\/h2>\n
There is one other route from Osaka that deserves an explanation, the route from Nishi-Kujo Station. This is where you would transfer from the JR Osaka Loop Line to the Hanshin Railway.<\/p>\n
![\"JR](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img17.jpg\")
\n![\"JR](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img18.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
You can actually see Hanshin Nishi-Kujo Station from the platform of JR Nishi-Kujo Station. This station on the JR Osaka Loop Line connects a big portion of the city, making stops at Tennoji, Shin-Imamiya, Tsuruhashi, Kyobashi, etc. If you\u2019re on the Loop Line, just head over to Nishi-Kujo and jump on the Hanshin train towards Koshien!<\/p>\n
![\"\"](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img19.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
\u3010From Nishi-Kujo\u3011<\/h3>\n
Hanshin Railway: Nishi-Kujo Station \u2192 Koshien Station
\n\u2028Train fare: \u00a5240\u2028
\nTime onboard: Approx. 15 min.<\/b><\/p>\n
Does that make sense? There are so many trains in Osaka, that it should be easy to get to Koshien no matter where you start.<\/p>\n
![\"Railway](\"https:\/\/maido-storage.oss-cn-hongkong.aliyuncs.com\/maido\/uploads\/2022\/08\/access-to-koshien-img20.jpg\")
<\/p>\n
For example, if you are coming from Tennoji you could take the JR Osaka Loop Line to Nishi-Kujo and get on the Hanshin there, or you could take the Osaka Metro to Namba Station and change to the Hanshin there. Either way, it\u2019s easy!
\nSo, that\u2019s it. That\u2019s how you get to Koshien.
\nIf you have any other suggestions for getting to the ballpark, I would love to hear from you. Enjoy the game!
