If you visit Fukuoka, you must go to 'Momochi Beach'
Momochi Beach, known as a must-visit place in Fukuoka, Japan, is a spot where you can take in exotic buildings and the sea at a glance. The exotic buildings are actually wedding halls.
It's a place where you can take beautiful photos with the wedding hall buildings and the sea as the backdrop, creating lasting memories. Already well-known as a photo spot in Fukuoka, it's highly recommended to visit if you're in the area.

Hidden Temple Complex in the Bustling City
A short walk from Fukuoka's famous spots (Hakata Station, Canal City) lies an ancient temple, undoubtedly one of the most beautiful temple complexes in Fukuoka. In autumn, the golden to red leaves create a harmonious contrast with the temple. Equally striking is the diverse architecture, especially the multi-tiered pagoda. The massive main hall is also quite spectacular, housing a gigantic wooden Buddha statue, which is truly amazing. The huge commemorative stones on the sides/back are also impressive, covered with plants, giving them a surreal feeling in the city center. As you might expect, there is a scent of incense. The shrubs and trees around the grounds are well-trimmed. Be sure to pull the rope to pray to the gods. It's definitely worth a stop, and it's very convenient to access within the city, just 100m from Exit 1 of the Gion K10 subway station on the Airport Line. Note that photography is not allowed indoors, only outside.
Fukuoka's Must-Visit Kamikawabata Shopping Street
Located between Hakata and Tenjin, this shopping street features numerous shops and restaurants. The atmosphere is similar to Osaka's Shinsaibashi, but Kamikawabata-machi is less crowded. The street has many restaurants and massage parlors, with a few drugstores and Daiso stores.😚
If you get tired, you can visit one of the massage parlors on Kamikawabata Shopping Street to relax your feet and relieve fatigue. The prices are reasonable and offer great value for money! As for food, I tried a few small shops. As soon as you enter Kamikawabata-machi, you'll see a popular store selling strawberry mochi daifuku, which is quite chewy and unique!

Fukuoka Half-Day Citywalk, don't miss this beautiful coastal route
Returning to Fukuoka City from Futamigaura, it was still early, so I looked at the map and decided to take a Citywalk along the coastline, connecting several of Fukuoka's notable spots. It was actually quite worthwhile, as Fukuoka is the kind of city where you can relax and just wander around.
·
🔀Route
Washio Atago Shrine → Atago Bridge → Seaside Momochi Beach Park → Fukuoka Tower → Fukuoka City Museum
·
🚇Transportation
Take the subway Kūkō Line to Muromi Station, then walk 20 minutes to Washio Atago Shrine.
·
📸Highlights
✅Washio Atago Shrine: One of the oldest shrines in Fukuoka and one of Japan's three major Atago Shrines. After exiting the subway station, you need to walk up the road to the mountain. The mountain is not very high, but there is a slightly steep section. Along the way, there are charming houses and hydrangeas. The shrine itself is not very remarkable, but its location serves as an observation deck where you can overlook the entire city of Fukuoka, especially the coastal scenery along Fukuoka Tower. After visiting, you can descend from the other side and continue walking towards Fukuoka Tower. The streets along the way are quiet, and with the blue sky like in a manga, it's very picturesque.
✅Atago Bridge: Not really a tourist spot, but it's the estuary of the Muromi River with a wide view. Some people fish under the bridge. After crossing Atago Bridge, there's a coastal walking path where many locals jog.
✅Momochi Seaside Park: A section of artificial beach along the coast, the best angle to photograph Fukuoka Tower. Many young people gather and play beach volleyball here, and there are carp streamers fluttering in the wind. It's a very relaxing place, and the pier extending from the beach gives off a dazzling European vibe.
✅Fukuoka Tower: One of Fukuoka City's iconic buildings, built with 8,000 single-sided mirrors and a unique equilateral triangular shape, hence also known as the "Mirror Sail." However, from an intuitive perspective, I think it looks more like a skyscraper than a tower. Fukuoka Tower was built in 1989 to commemorate the "Asia-Pacific Expo" held that year. It stands 234 meters tall, making it the tallest seaside tower in Japan. From the 123-meter-high observation room, you can get a panoramic view of Fukuoka City and Hakata Bay.
✅Fukuoka City Museum: The main exhibition halls are on the second floor, including the Permanent Exhibition Room, Planning Exhibition Room, and Special Exhibition Room. The museum's treasure is the "Gold Seal of the King of Na of the Han Dynasty," a representative of early Sino-Japanese exchanges. What impressed me more was the huge float of the Hakata Gion Yamakasa in the hall.

Fukuoka's Popular Spot: Mutsukado, a Brunch Cafe Loved by Locals
I'd like to introduce 'Mutsukado,' a cafe in Hakata, Fukuoka, that is frequently visited by locals! I had already planned to visit, but after receiving a recommendation from the owner of my accommodation, I was even more determined to go :) Even though I visited in the morning, the tables were fully occupied. It's a great place for a morning brunch.
Mutsukado is located on the 5th floor of Amu Plaza at Hakata Station. It might be a bit confusing if you look at Google Maps, but once you enter the station, just take the escalator up to the 5th floor. It's a conveniently located cafe in Hakata, Fukuoka.
*Operating hours: Daily 10:00-20:00
Fukuoka... Japan on a Budget.
♥️Fukuoka♥️
Fukuoka is a city in Japan located on Kyushu Island. This city is one of the top destinations for tourists because the airfare from Thailand is quite affordable. Round-trip tickets can be as low as 5000-7000 baht if you're lucky. Accommodation and food costs are also reasonable, with ramen vending machines offering meals for just 290 yen. We didn't explore Fukuoka city extensively because we spent most of our time riding the trains. However, the time we spent in Fukuoka prefecture was enough to enjoy eating, sightseeing, and shopping.
⛩️Tourist Attractions⛩️
✨Nanzoin Temple
✨Kushida Shrine
✨Kitakyushu
✨Mojiko Port
✨Fukuoka Tower
✨Gion Festival (July)
✨Fish Market

It's like a flying hotel designed by Hayao Miyazaki!
If you've seen classic animations like Nausicaä of the Valley of the Wind, you've probably seen some airships from the last century, where you could see the sky through the metal framework inside the airship. However, since the Hindenburg disaster, these airships have been replaced by modern airplanes due to safety concerns.
The designer of the Hilton Fukuoka Sea Hawk has incorporated this style into the hotel's design, allowing guests to feel like they are flying in an airship while dining.
The hotel also features many unique designs, such as the 'Edge of the World' cloud sea view chapel, the 'Infinity' sea view bathroom, the 'Ten Mile Beach' dining room, and the giant dome sports-themed guest rooms. It's truly unique, which is why it remains a popular staycation hotel in Kyushu even after many years of operation.
Mitsui Garden Hotel Fukuoka Gion: Open-Air Baths, Canal City Hakata

All-You-Can-Eat Mentaiko in Fukuoka
This place is located in a shopping mall, SOLARIA STAGE, right beneath Tenjin Station🏢. They procure fresh fish daily from Fukuoka's fish market🐟 and pride themselves on being the first in Tenjin, even in Fukuoka, to offer set meals with all-you-can-eat mentaiko🏆! The set meals featuring fresh fish as the main and rice🍚, paired with mentaiko and hot rice, taste superb👍.
We ordered two set meals, each coming with a small bowl of vegetables🥗, rice, miso soup🍲, and pickles. The kanpachi (amberjack) was incredibly satisfying😊, and the sashimi was also very plump👌. Since there's all-you-can-eat mentaiko, we didn't miss the chance to refill🔄, but honestly, mentaiko is a very salty condiment, and it's best eaten with rice🍚.
Kanamachi cooked set meal 1890 yen💰

Japan Trip ⭐️Shin-Shin Ramen⭐️ Tenjin Parco Branch is one of the direct stores of the popular ramen specialty shop, Shin-Shin Ramen, in Fukuoka.

Fukuoka Aesthetic Cafe
The pudding's visual appeal and the window seats are totally my style, so I definitely wanted to visit this place 🍮. At this cafe, you find a seat after placing your order! The staff was very friendly and explained everything well. They also serve meals, so it was mostly locals dining there. There are plenty of window seats, making it a great place to relax 🫧. They offer a pudding & drink set, which was more affordable than I expected, but unfortunately, the taste wasn't to my liking 😭.

Hakata Miyako Hotel: A luxurious resort-like Japanese izakaya, a must-try in Kyushu!
Hakata Miyako Hotel is located in front of Hakata Station, with direct access to the station and only a 1-minute walk away. The luxury is akin to a resort, yet it is situated in the heart of the city. Surprisingly, the restaurant also has high standards, and this time we introduce the Japanese izakaya on the second floor of the hotel.
Uozou Izakaya excites the taste buds, and the interior space design is also very comfortable. Especially the service staff make us feel at home, it's simply an izakaya that offers a five-sense experience, especially with the fresh sashimi, sushi, live octopus sashimi, and tempura, it's simply a heavenly delicacy, and also my top recommendation in Kyushu!

Staying in Itoshima! A hotel with a panoramic view of the sea in Itoshima.
Itoshima is a popular tourist spot in Fukuoka Prefecture.
Although many people visit Itoshima on a day trip from Fukuoka city, for those who want to spend a leisurely time in Itoshima, a hotel stay is recommended!
Head to the newly opened luxury resort hotel, 'seven x seven Itoshima', which blends into Futamigaura, just opened this March.
All rooms offer an ocean view, allowing you to enjoy a stay while gazing at the beautiful sea of Itoshima🌊
The rooms are equipped with a refrigerator and a kitchen, so you can cook and stay at your own pace, which is attractive.
Breakfast is brought to your room, so you can enjoy it slowly in your room🍽️
It was a wonderful hotel where you can fully enjoy the sea of Itoshima🏨
The Hilton Fukuoka Sea Hawk offers truly unbeatable views, but the rooms are a bit lacking
My last night in Kyushu was spent at the Hilton Fukuoka Sea Hawk, mainly for its renowned views, and indeed, the views did not disappoint. However, the room facilities were somewhat underwhelming, making the cost-performance ratio just average.
📍Detailed Address: Located right next to the Fukuoka Dome, it's considered a landmark location. However, it's not very convenient as it's a distance away from the nearest subway station, Tojinmachi Station. There are buses that stop in front of the hotel, and on weekends, there's a free shuttle bus to the subway station. There used to be a free shuttle to the airport, but that has been discontinued.
🏨Facilities: The hotel's exterior is distinctive, resembling a ship from above and a sail from the side. It's connected to the Seahawk City shopping mall, and the atrium is impressively grand. Compared to the excellent public areas, the guest room facilities are quite a letdown. Without exaggeration, aside from the exceptional view, the rooms are at the level of a hostel, small and lacking in design. The shower is the kind that's in the bathtub, but the view from the window makes up for everything. The ocean view is superb 👍
📝Service: The service is standard. The reception was not particularly welcoming during check-in, and they did not proactively explain everything; I had to ask. Also, it's strange that the pool requires an additional fee. However, as a Hilton Gold member, I was upgraded to an executive room on a high floor, which was nice. Additionally, the executive lounge is indeed nice, with simple decor but an excellent view, and the lounge staff provided great service 🌟
🍽Dining: For breakfast, you can choose between the downstairs restaurant or the upstairs lounge. For the view, I chose the lounge. The food is quite refined, with a decent variety. Each type is not presented in large quantities, but replenishments are timely. I didn't get a chance to go to the happy hour, but outside of breakfast and happy hour, you can go for drinks at any time ✅
Kyushu's Ultimate Travel Train in Japan
🚆 A tourist attraction in the Kyushu region of Japan, the Kyushu Seven Stars train is a sightseeing train that connects 7 prefectures. This luxury train, which can be called seven-star, has 7 carriages, each representing a prefecture. 🌠
🚃 The train was created by the Kyushu Railway Company, costing nearly 3 billion Japanese yen. It started operation in 2013, and the design of both the interior and exterior was overseen by Mr. Eiji Mitooka. The train's interior decoration uses high-quality rosewood, peach wood, and maple to build, and the bedrooms and dining rooms are made with a lot of wood and traditional Japanese crafts, perfectly interpreting Japanese elegant aesthetics. 🎇
🏠 The train has a total of 14 suites, accommodating only 28 guests. Passengers can choose one of two routes; one is a two-day and one-night trip around Fukuoka, and the other is a four-day and three-night trip around Kyushu. During the slow journey, travelers can enjoy the majestic volcanoes, lush bamboo forests, sparkling waves, and hot springs, feeling the ultimate romance bestowed by nature. ⭐
🚋 The culture of train travel in Japan has a long history, and train travel is a very popular way of traveling among Japanese people. On the Kyushu Seven Stars train, passengers can 'enjoy the time on the road' and experience top-level sightseeing and touring. However, the train's incredibly scarce seats require half a year's advance registration and use a lottery reservation system. The chance of being selected is only 3.9%, so many Japanese people have added riding the Kyushu Seven Stars train to their bucket list. 🎰
🛕 If you are fortunate enough to sit on the Kyushu Seven Stars train, you will deeply understand the highest realm of luxury travel. This is not just luxury, but also an exquisite experience worth reminiscing over a lifetime.
