Hakubutsukan-Dōbutsuen Station

Hakubutsukan-Dobutsuen Station (Japanese: 博物館動物園駅) is a former station of the Keisei Electric Railway in Taito-ku, Tokyo. It is located between Nippori Station and Keisei Ueno Station. It opened in 1933, but was closed on 1 April 1997 due to the length of the platform being too short for most trains. The station was formally abandoned in April 2004. The station building and platform are still in existence and have been renovated and opened to the public in 2018.
