Hibiya Station (日比谷駅, Hibiya-eki) is a Tokyo subway station in the Yūrakuchō district of Chiyoda, Tokyo, Japan, operated by Tokyo Metro and Toei. The area around the station is generally called Hibiya, which is the southwestern corner of the Yūrakuchō district.
Hibiya is Tokyo Metro's 33rd busiest station in fiscal 2019, while its connected station Yūrakuchō ranks sixteenth.[1]
Yūrakuchō Station on the Tokyo Metro Yūrakuchō Line is connected to Hibiya Station by underground passageways, and it is possible to connect between the two stations without going through the ticket gates. However, the JR platforms at Yūrakuchō are fairly far from Hibiya Station and require a second ticket.
The Hibiya Line station opened on 29 August 1964, the Chiyoda Line station opened on 20 March 1971, and the Mita Line station opened on 30 June 1972.[3]
The station facilities of the Hibiya and Chiyoda Lines were inherited by Tokyo Metro after the privatization of the Teito Rapid Transit Authority (TRTA) in 2004.[4]
