• Tozai Line: Kyoto Shiyakusho-mae ⇄ Higashiyama (Kyoto)

Sanjō Keihan Station opened on 12 October 1997 with the initial Daigo–Nijō section of the Kyoto Municipal Subway Tōzai Line, in Higashiyama Ward, Kyōto. It links via an off-fare underground concourse to the Keihan Main and Ōtō Lines' Sanjō Station, and effectively replaced the former Keishin-Sanjō Station of the abandoned Keihan Keishin Line. Because the surrounding streets left no room for turnback tracks, Keishin Line through-trains were initially extended to Kyōto Shiyakusho-mae rather than turning back here, with the 2008 extension routing some services through to Uzumasa Tenjingawa. IC card travel using PiTaPa began on 1 April 2007, and the ticket gates became unstaffed on 1 November 2022.

The name predates the subway — local bus stops and the wider district had long used Sanjō Keihan, a corruption of the older Sanjō-dōri Keihan-mae for the area in front of Keihan's Sanjō Station.
