Ōsakajōkōen Station

is a railway station on the West Japan Railway Company (JR West) Osaka Loop Line in Jōtō-ku, Osaka, Japan. The station name translates as Osaka Castle Park.

The station was designed to reflect the architecture of Ōsakajō (Ōsaka Castle), for which the station gets its name. This could be seen in the black and white coloured contrast of the walls, and the green-coloured roofs (representing the iconic colour of corroded copper roofs that Ōsakajō is well known for having).

Layout

There are two side platforms with two tracks on the ground level.
