The building which contains both Japanese and Western styles used to be the station building of JR Nara station. The two-story concrete building features a tiled roof with Sorin (vertical shaft with rings) on top, which makes it look like a roof of a pagoda in temples. The building was constructed in 1934 and used as a station building until 2003. Then it was moved to the current location and now used as a tourist information center.
