Chōkoku-no-mori Station (彫刻の森駅, Chōkokunomori-eki) is a railway station on the Hakone Tozan Line located in Hakone, Kanagawa Prefecture, Japan. It is 14.3 rail kilometers from the line's terminus at Odawara Station, named after Hakone Open-Air Museum.
History
[edit]Chōkoku-no-mori Station was opened on June 1, 1919 as Ni-no-Taira Station (二ノ平駅, Ninotaira-eki). It was renamed to its present name on March 15, 1972 on the opening of the nearby Hakone Open-Air Museum of modern sculpture.
On 1 April 2024, operations of the station came under the aegis of Odakyu Hakone resulting from restructuring of Odakyu Group operations in the Hakone area.[1]
