Funicular cable car station at the top of Mt. Hiei.

It takes about 10 minutes (on foot) to get from this station to the Todo area, which includes the Enryaku-ji Temple.

Also, you will be able to get a nice view of Lake Biwa from its observation deck.

*The funicular car runs between Enryakuji Station and Sakamoto Station, and it takes 11 minutes to get from one station to another. The train departs every :00 and :30 minutes.
