SPOT
Aikoku Station, which became famous with the catchphrase of 'From the Land of Love to Happiness' of the former Japan National Railways Hiroo Line that became an abandoned line. Currently, as a transportation museum, tickets, panels, and SLs which were used at that time are exhibited. Also, the front of the monument, which was modeled after a 'Happiness-bound' ticket in front of the station building, is an excellent photo spot.
