Nagoya Daigaku Station The Meijō Line (名城線, Meijō-sen) is a subway line forming part of the Nagoya Municipal Subway system in Nagoya, Japan, operated by Transportation Bureau City of Nagoya.
It is a loop line that runs from Kanayama, via Sakae, Ōzone, Nagoya Daigaku, and back to Kanayama, all within Nagoya.
The Meijō Line color on maps is wisteria purple.
Its stations are numbered with the prefix "M".
Officially, the line consists of Nagoya City Rapid Railway Line 2 (名古屋市高速度鉄道第2号線, Nagoya-shi Kōsokudo Tetsudō Dai-ni-gō-sen), the western part, and Line 4 (第4号線, Dai-yon-gō-sen), the eastern part.
All the stations accept manaca, a rechargeable contactless smart card.
This is the second loop subway line built in Japan, after Toei Ōedo Line.
The Ōedo Line, however, is not a true loop line as it is operated like a 6 lying on its side, with trains from the western Hikarigaoka
terminus running anticlockwise around the loop and terminating at Tochōmae Station and then returning around the loop to Hikarigaoka.
Thus the Meijō Line is the first (and currently the only) true loop subway line in the nation.
The line is longer than the JR Ōsaka Loop Line (21.7 km or 13.5 mi), but shorter than the JR Yamanote Line (34.5 km or 21.4 mi).
It takes 48 minutes to complete the loop.
The name Meijō is derived from the abbreviated kanji form of Nagoya Castle (名古屋城, Nagoya-jō).
