Tarōbōgū-mae Station

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Tarōbōgūmae Station (太郎坊宮前駅, "station in front of Tarōbō Shrine") is a train station in Higashiōmi, Shiga Prefecture, Japan. Although Ohmi Railway uses the name Tarōbōgū-mae with long sound for the first "o" on its web page,[1] the actual station signage shown on that page says Tarobōgū-mae (short sound for the first "o") in Japanese script. Both readings may be accepted.

Aga-jinja

The station was renamed after Tarōbō Shrine, also known as Aga-jinja (阿賀神社), a shinto shrine near the station on April 1, 1998. Before the renaming, it was called Tarobō Station (太郎坊駅, Tarobō-eki).[2]
