Chōjagahamashiosaihamanasukōenmae Station

Chōjagahamashiosaihamanasukōenmae Station (長者ヶ浜潮騒はまなす公園前駅, Chōjagahama Shiosai Hamanasu Kōenmae-eki, "in front of the park of sea roar and rugosa roses by Chojagahama beach") is a passenger railway station in the town of Kashima, Ibaraki Prefecture, Japan operated by the third sector Kashima Rinkai Railway. The station is tied with Minamiaso Mizu-no-Umareru-Sato Hakusui-Kōgen Station in Kumamoto Prefecture for the longest train station name in Japan, with 22 kana each. However, since the other station is closed due to the 2016 Kumamoto earthquakes, this station currently has the longest name in Japan.[1]
