At the end of the line lies Kishi Station, the world-famous “Cat Station” where visitors can meet the current feline stationmaster and feel the legacy of Tama, the original cat who saved the railway. The station building itself, designed by Eiji Mitooka, is shaped like a cat with pointed ears and smiling windows. Inside, you’ll find the Tama Shrine, a café, and a small museum dedicated to Tama’s story. With its gentle atmosphere and charming design, Kishi Station has become a symbol of how kindness, imagination, and one small cat can revive an entire community.
