Fukuoka: Hakata Half Day Shared Tour ~Sightseeing with Coffee~

Ohori Park was built making use of the outer moat of Fukuoka Castle. In Maizuru Park, flowers of the seasons bloom in full. The area where these two parks sit side by side is an oasis of Fukuoka water and greenery.

Kuroda Nagamasa, the first lord of Fukuoka province, started constructing Fukuoka castle in 1601 and took 7 years to finish. The castle was a flat-land type and had around 50 observatory towers of various sizes. Among them, Tamon-yagura (designated as an important cultural property), Shiomi-yagura, Otemon, Kinen-yagura, Najima-mon are conserved today. The castle ruins are designated as a national historic site and it is also called “Maizuru-jo (castle)”.

After the stroll, we'll take you to Jun Kissa, a guide-recommended spot. One drink, such as coffee, is included. Please note that while the featured photo shows Coffee Noda, the facility may change on the day of the tour due to availability, business hours, or other circumstances.

This tower of 234 meters above sea level is the tallest beach tower in Japan. This symbolic building of Fukuoka’s western subcenter, covered by as many as 8000 half-mirrors and boasting a sharp appearance with its triangular structure, is known by the name of Mirror Sail. The panoramic view of Fukuoka city from the observation room on the 5th floor of 123 meters high is fantastic. The room is equipped with up-to-date telescopes.
