Welcome to Fukuoka! If you are the first comer here, I would like to show you major historical sites in Fukuoka on this tour. In the morning, we will visit "Yusentei Park" which used to be Fukuoka Lord's (samurai ) second house from the mid 18th to mid 19th century. Whenever I visit there, I feel myself relaxed in the clean air. You'll enjoy the serenity of its traditional Japanese-style garden. In the afternoon, we'll move to the east side of Fukuoka city and visit a major temple and a shrine. You shouldn't miss Fukuoka Daibutsu in Tochoji Temple, the biggest seated wooden Buddha in Japan. Kushida Shrine has been a guardian shrine for Hakata merchants since the 8th century, and it is famous for answering prayers for a good business, happy long life. This shrine is special for me because I visited there on special occasions such as celebrating my daughter's birth and growth. I'm sure you will enjoy exploring the best parts of Fukuoka.
