Tokyo is the largest urban economy on the planet.
Together with its suburbs and some regions, the capital of Japan forms a huge urbanized area, the population of which is approaching the 40 million mark.
It is therefore not surprising that Tokyo is home to the busiest train station on the planet.
We are talking about a transportation hub called Shinjuku.
This station connects the central part of the Japanese capital with several suburbs located to the west of the city.
Features of Shinjuku Station
The station was opened in 1885. Over the years, the importance of the transport hub became more and more serious.
At some point, things reached the point where Shinjuku acquired the status of the busiest station on the planet.
Shinjuku handles more than 3 million passengers every day.
The total number of exits from the station exceeded 200 (if you take into account the underground shopping arcades).
