Location

History

Sōzenji Station opened on 1 April 1921 as part of the Kita-Osaka Electric Railway (now the Hankyu Kyoto Line), in Higashiyodogawa-ku, Osaka, Osaka Prefecture. Two side platforms serve two tracks at ground level. Hankyu-wide station numbering on 21 December 2013 assigned it the number HK-62. Grade-separation work on the 3.3-kilometre Sōzenji - Kami-Shinjō section of the Kyoto Line was under way as of 2019; originally planned for completion by 2020, it has been repeatedly delayed, and the current target for elevation is 2031. Sōzenji has the lightest ridership of any station on the Hankyu Kyoto Line.

Notes

Of all stations on the Hankyu Kyoto Line, Sōzenji is consistently the least used.
