Lines

Asakayama Station is served by the Nankai Koya Line, and is 9.4 kilometers from the terminus of the line at Shiomibashi and 8.7 kilometers from Nanba. [1]

Platforms

1   Koya Line for Koyasan
2   Koya Line for Namba

Barrier‐free construction

Until 2010, a building believed to be the old above-ground station building remained under the bridge station building near Koyasan on platform 2, but it was removed during the barrier-free construction in 2011. In the past, the overall difference between the platform and the train was large and it was dangerous to get on and off, but this problem was resolved by the implementation of the lifting work. At that time, the line display, clock, and station name sign were changed to new models. In the past, the bridge station building itself did not have barrier-free facilities, and dedicated passages and intercoms for wheelchair users were installed on both the upper and lower platforms (the up platform is near the aforementioned building, the down platform is near the bicycle parking lot), but with the completion of the barrier-free construction in 2011, an elevator was installed. In addition, toilets were relocated and gender-segregated and multipurpose toilets were installed.
