Dongbang Station

A train station located in Dongbang-dong, Gyeongju, between Bulguksa Station and Gyeongju Station on the Donghae Nambu Line. It began operations as an unstaffed station in 1919 and was called Dojiyeok at the time, but changed to its current name in 1927.
Dongbang Station was promoted to an ordinary station in 1951, but as passengers continued to decrease, it became an unstaffed station again in 2005, and is currently used as a signal station where trains do not stop. It only briefly stops when two trains traveling in opposite directions on the single-track Donghae Line pass each other.
Dongbang Station, once a quiet rural station with no visitors, began to draw attention again thanks to the orange trumpet vines that fill its walls every summer. The profusely blooming trumpet vines combined with the faded Dongbang Station sign create a unique atmosphere.
