In this study, the energy spectrum and wave functions of the hydrogen atom are discussed using the path integral method in complex space. The Path integral is easily applied to the harmonic oscillator problem. The problem of hydrogen atom is transformed into the problem of harmonic oscillator problem by the space-time transformation.
