Asakusa Station (浅草駅, Asakusa-eki) is an underground railway station on the Tsukuba Express line in the Asakusa district of Taito, Tokyo, Japan, operated by the private railway operator Metropolitan Intercity Railway Company. It is numbered "TX03".
While the station is located only 300 meters from the Tawaramachi station on the Ginza Line, there is no transfer corridor between the two.
This station is also situated relatively close to the station complex of the same name serving the Ginza Line, the Asakusa Line and Tobu Railway lines. There are no transfer passageways between these two stations. Passengers transferring between these stations must transfer at street level, as the latter station is located 600 meters (1,969 ft) to the east.
